See http://entag.org Foreword In agricultural development, Ethiopia and the Netherlands are strategic partners. The government of Ethiopia pursues its growth strategy by emphasizing agricultural transformation. The Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands (EKN) is supporting Ethiopian ambitions for food security and agricultural growth. This cooperation aims for an intensification of production and processing, which are necessary to feed the growing population and for export earnings. AgriProFocus Ethiopia is part of an international network with Dutch roots. AgriProFocus promotes the network approach as a growth diamond of collaboration between farmer entrepreneurs, companies, governments, knowledge institutions, consultancies, finan­ cial institutions and NGOs in the agrifood sector. We offer our members and partners linking, learning and leadership services through business events, learning activities and an online platform with 22,000 professionals worldwide. Contract farming arrangements are important in linking commercial and development objectives. The inclusion of small­scale farmers in market­oriented value chains is expected to both augment the volume for the market and boost farmer income. This double impact is exactly the reason why governments and development organisations have supported contract farming arrangements in Ethiopia. As mentioned in this publication, contract farming initiatives have contributed to a new and much needed dynamic in the agricultural sector in Ethiopia. At the same time, this book shows that contract farming is not a simple one­size­fits­all solution. The analysis of the cases show the diversity in design, in implementation and in terms of results for the contract partners. A key factor of success is the role of the Contract farming in Ethiopia Contract interface between farmers and firm. III We thank all the authors for their contribution to this publication. Enjoy reading! Sander Mager Annet Witteveen Managing Director Country coordinator AgriProFocus Netherlands AgriProFocus Ethiopia Acknowledgements This book is not the result of a rigid scientific exercise. We did not start with a research hypothesis and did not conduct a randomized trial with control groups. Instead, a group of agricultural professionals started by sharing observations and questions from their practice. These were written down in t descriptions. An iterative process followed: the descriptions contributed to the analytical framework, which was in turn used to collect additional data and further enrich the stories. Eventually, the decision was taken to share our analysis, conclusions and recommenda­ tions with a wider audience through this booklet. The focus is on what actually happens in a selection of contract farming schemes in Ethiopia and the reflections that arise from this. This has led in turn to the development of conclusions and recommendations that could be applied more widely. Credit for inspiring this learning track and this publication goes to Lamberto Lamberti from CIHEAM Bari / SupHort. In due course, professionals from five other organisations joined the learning track. We would like to thank all the authors who contributed: Sorsa Debela Gelalcha, Terfesa Dandena, Aklilu Amsalu, Getachew Mekonnin, Tarekegn Garomsa, Feshadu Adugna Tufa, Lamberto Lamberti and Tiglu Tesfaye. Their details are given in the last section of the book. Considerable time passed between the write­up in 2015/2016 and publication in 2017. We would like to thank Victor van der Linden (Fair & Sustainable Ethiopia) for his effort in getting the draft ready for publication. Our thanks also go out to our John Belt and Egbert Hoving (feedback and proofreading); to Annemarie Kortleve and Gizaw Legesse (photos, bios); and to Ruth Davies (editing) and Brendan Timmers (design and printing).

  • Septoria Tritici Blotch (Septoria Tritici) of Bread Wheat (Triticum Aestivum L.) in the Central Highlands of Ethiopia
    ISSN 2394-966X International Journal of Novel Research in Life Sciences Vol. 6, Issue 1, pp: (13-20), Month: January - February 2019, Available at: www.noveltyjournals.com Survey of Septoria Tritici Blotch (Septoria tritici) of Bread Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) in the Central Highlands of Ethiopia Yitagesu Tadesse1,2*, Alemayehu Chala1, Bekele Kassa2 1College of Agriculture, Hawassa University, P.O. Box 05, Hawassa, Ethiopia 2Ethiopian Institute of Agricultural Research, Holleta Agricultural Research Center, P.O. Box 2003, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia * Corresponding author: Yitagesu Tadesse; Email: [email protected] Abstract: Septoria tritici blotch (STB) is an economically important foliar disease in the major wheat-growing areas of Ethiopia. The current research was conducted to determine the incidence and severity of STB in the central highlands of Ethiopia. A total of 59 wheat fields were surveyed in 27 districts of three administrative zones i.e. South west, west and North shewa zones. The overall mean incidence of STB across the three zones varied from 52 to 75 %. Similarly, mean severity ranged from 45 to 83 %. The present findings confirmed the importance of STB in Ethiopia. Keywords: Bread wheat, Disease survey, Central Highlands of Ethiopia, Septoria tritici Blotch. 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1.Back ground and Justification Wheat (Triticum spp.) is considered among the most commonly cultivated cereal crops with over 755 million metric tons harvested each year (FAO, 2017). It is the fourth most important cereal crop in agriculture. Although the crop is widely cultivated at altitudes ranging from 1500 to 3000 m.a.s.l, in Ethiopia, the most suitable area falls between 1700 and 2800 m.a.s.l ( CSA, 2017).

Chapter 2 Groundwater Occurrence in Regions and Basins 2.1 The Broad (Oligo-Miocene) Volcanic Plateau and Associated Shields Geology and Stratigraphy The broad volcanic plateau (Fig. 1.2) accounts for about 25 % of Ethiopian land- mass. The Ethiopian volcanic plateau is a thick monotonous, rapidly erupted pile of locally deformed, flat lying basalts consisting of a number of volcanic centers with different magmatic character and with a large range of ages. The trap volcanics including the associated shield volcanoes cover an area at least 6 9 105 km2 (around two-third surface of the country), and a total volume estimated to be at least 3.5 9 105 km3 (Mohr 1983) and probably higher than 1.2 9 106 km3 according to Rochette et al. (1998). Flat-topped hills and nearly horizontal lava flows is a common scene in the broad volcanic plateau. Topographic features of the basaltic plateau are vertical cliffs, waterfalls, V-shaped valleys, vertical and mushroom-like outcrops of columnar basalts, and step-like hill terraces.

  • Xerox University Microfilms
    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spiiced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.
