  • 19 Epidemiological Study of Bovine Trypanosomosis in Wenbera
    Epidemiological Study Of Bovine Trypanosomosis In Wenbera District, Metekal Zone Of Benishagul Gumuz Regional State, Western Ethiopia [1] Dawit Tesfaye, [1] Tesfa Feleke and [2] Derara Birasa 1 National Tsetse flies and Trypanosomosis Control and Eradication Institute of Ethiopia, Assosa 2 Jimma University, College of Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine, School of Veterinary Medicine, P. O. Box 307, Jimma, Ethiopia Corresponding author: [email protected]; phone: +251910186937/+251910186937 Abstract: Cross-sectional study was conducted in Wanbera district of Benishangul-Gumuz Regional State, Western Ethiopia from February, 2019 to April 2019 to assess the prevalence of bovine trypanosomosis and association risk factors. During this survey, blood samples of 384 randomly selected cattle (Bosindicus) were examined using Buffy coat techniques. The packed cell volume (PCV) value of each animal was measured using hematocrit reader. Descriptive statistics was held to analyze the findings using STATA version 14.0 software packages. Chi square test was used to determine the association between different risk factors (age, sex, Body condition and location) and trypanosomosis infection. Out of 384 cattle examined, 8(2.08%) were found positive for trypanosomosis. The highest prevalence was revealed in Bagondy village 4 (50%) followed by Muz village 3(37.5%) and the lowest was recorded in Zamatiya village 1(12.5%). Trypanosome congolense (75%) was the most dominant trypanosome species identified followed by T. vivax (25%). The mean packed cell volume (PCV) value of infected animals was 17.92%±3.356 for trypanosome positive animals and 27.22%±2.748 for non-infected animals. Similarly, the highest prevalence (87.5%) of trypanosomosis infection was registered in animals with poor body condition score.

This inquiry illuminates aspects of the recent trends in the socio-economic and cultural life of the Shinasha. This layered analysis and illuminates the contextual of the study area and complex relationships between socio-economic and cultural changes with geographical locations of the areas. It is well-known that the socio-cultural and economic changes of the Shinasha are the least studied subjects in Ethiopian historiography.

  • Implications of Land Deals to Livelihood Security and Natural Resource Management in Benshanguel Gumuz Regional State, Ethiopia by Maru Shete
    Implications of land deals to livelihood security and natural resource management in Benshanguel Gumuz Regional State, Ethiopia by Maru Shete Paper presented at the International Conference on Global Land Grabbing 6-8 April 2011 Organised by the Land Deals Politics Initiative (LDPI) in collaboration with the Journal of Peasant Studies and hosted by the Future Agricultures Consortium at the Institute of Development Studies, University of Sussex Implications of land deals to livelihood security and natural resource management in Benshanguel Gumuz Regional State, Ethiopia 1 (Draft not for citation) Maru Shete Future Agricultures Consortium Research Fellow, P.O.Box 50321, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Email: [email protected] Abstract The Federal Government of Ethiopia (FGE) is leasing out large tracts of arable lands both to domestic and foreign investors in different parts of the country where land is relatively abundant. While the FGE justifies that it is part of the country’s strategy to achieve food security objective, critics have been forwarded from different directions. This research aims at studying the implications of land deals to livelihood security and natural resource management in Benshanguel Gumuz Regional State. Exploratory study was done and data were collected through interviewing 150 farm households in two districts of the region. Key informants interview and focus group discussions were also held to generate required data. Primary data were complemented with secondary data sources. Preliminary findings suggest that there is weak linkage, monitoring and support of investment activities from federal, regional and district levels, weak capacity of domestic investors, accelerated degradation of forest resources, and threatened livelihood security of community members.

    Enhancing the Role of Forestry in Building Climate Resilient Green Economy in Ethiopia Strategy for scaling up effective forest management practices in Benishangul-Gumuz National Regional State with emphasis on Management of Dry Forests and Woodlands Motuma Tolera Abeje Eshete Bekele Guta Efrem Garedew Girmay Fitwi Abrham Abiyu Habtemariam Kassa Center for International Forestry Research Ethiopia Office Addis Ababa October 2015 Copyright © Center for International Forestry Research, 2015 Cover photo by authors FORWARD This regional strategy document for scaling up effective forest management practices in Benishangul Gumuz National Regional State, with particular emphasis on managing dry forests and woodlands was produced as one of the outputs of a project entitled “Enhancing the Role of Forestry in Ethiopia’s Climate Resilient Green Economy”, and implemented between September 2013 and August 2015. CIFOR and our ministry actively collaborated in the planning and implementation of the project, which involved over 25 senior experts drawn from Federal ministries, regional bureaus, Federal and regional research institutes, and from Wondo Genet College of Forestry and Natural Resources and other universities. The senior experts were organised into five teams, which set out to identify effective forest management practices, and enabling conditions for scaling them up, with the aim of significantly enhancing the role of forests in building a climate resilient green economy in Ethiopia. The five forest management practices studied were: the establishment and management of area exclosures; the management of plantation forests; Participatory Forest Management (PFM); agroforestry (AF); and the management of dry forests and woodlands. Each team focused on only one of the five forest management practices, and concentrated its study in one regional state.

    Journal of Critical Reviews ISSN- 2394-5125 Vol 7, Issue 9, 2020 SOCIAL CONDITIONS OF SHINASHA TRIALS IN NORTHWESTERN ETHIOPIA 1Abebe Ano Alula, 2Arjun Rao Kuthadi (Ph.D.) 1Ph.D. candidate in Department of History, College of Social Sciences and Art Osmania University, Hyderabad, India 2Professor of History ,Supervisor, Department of History, College of Social Sciences and Art Osmania University, Hyderabad, India Received: 24.03.2020 Revised: 14.04.2020 Accepted: 22.05.2020 Abstract This article is primarily concerned to explore the social conditions of the Shinasha community in northwestern Ethiopia. Shinasha is some of the Indigenous groups with Ca. 60,587 population in Ethiopia, Africa continent, who are living Benishangul-Gumuz Regional State, near the Sudanese borderland. They have different social practices that distinguish them from others. They were part of the historical Gonga people who once lived on edges of the River Abay. Where were the early places of settlement of the Shinasha? What were the Social conditions, social changes and continuity in the Shinasha community? I address these questions by historically juxtaposing with social conditions and its dynamics with my interviews with the key informants and observations of changes in conditions of the Shinasha. This study highlights the geographic and background of the study area. The study tries to focus on the early settlement of the Shinasha and their conquest under imperial rule. It attempted to analyze the social organization of the Shinasha society. The significance of the paper is contributed to the understanding of the Social conditions and social changes and continuity of the Shinasha community in the historical outline.
