  • Perception of Local Community Toward Protected Woodlands at Dugda Woreda, East Shewa Zone, Oromia, Ethiopia
    Vol. 13(3), pp. 63-69, July-September, 2020 DOI: 10.5897/JGRP2019.0739 Article Number: 8B1D13564563 ISSN 2070-1845 Copyright © 2020 Author(s) retain the copyright of this article Journal of Geography and Regional Planning http://www.academicjournals.org/JGRP Full Length Research Paper Perception of local community toward protected woodlands at Dugda Woreda, East Shewa Zone, Oromia, Ethiopia Tsegu Ereso Denbel Department of Natural Resource Management, College of Agricultural Science, Bule Hora University West Guji Zone, Oromia, P. O. Box 144, Ethiopia. Received 22 June, 2019; Accepted 20 September, 2019 Woodlands of Ethiopia are estimated to be around 70%. Unfortunately, this woodland is seriously under threats, mostly linked to human interference, livestock and climate change. To overcome these problems, protected woodlands were implemented in different parts of the country including Dugda Woreda Giraba KorkeAdii Kebele. However, the perception of local community towards protected woodlands was not studied. As a result, the main purpose of this study was to assess the perception of local community toward protected woodland at Dugda Woreda, East Shoa Zone, Oromia, Ethiopia. Before deciding the method of data collection, a reconnaissance survey was undertaken to obtain the impressions of the study site conditions and select sampling sites. A purposive sampling technique was employed to select the kebele from the Woreda. The sample size of households for the survey was determined by the proportional sampling method. A total of 138 households were selected for the survey; of these, 61 households are poor, 53 households are medium in terms of income and 21 households are rich. Semi-structured questionnaires were prepared for household interviews and the data were analyzed using Microsoft excel and SPSS and results were presented using descriptive statistics.

  • Assessment Field Trip to Arsi Zone (Oromiya Region)
    United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) Emergencies Unit for Ethiopia (EUE) Assessment field trip to Arsi zone (Oromiya Region) Field Assessment Mission: 7 – 10 April & 15 – 17 April 2003 By Francois Piguet, UN-Emergencies Unit for Ethiopia 1. Introduction and background The mission’s major objectives were to assess the humanitarian situation in Arsi, following three years of rainfall deficit. The assessment focused on general agriculture situation, livestock condition and the main humanitarian concerns, which are stressed mainly due to food insecurity at household level, water shortage, health issues and unexpected migrations of people and livestock. According to the zonal authorities, of 22 woreda in Arsi zone, 19 are affected by the prolonged drought conditions. The most affected woreda are: Dodota Sire and Zway Gugda woreda where it is estimated that last year farmers lost 95 % of their harvest, Merti and Gololcha with 80% failure and Seru 70% failure. Woreda in the lowlands suffered greatest. At the beginning of 2003 Belg rainy season, Arsi zone has experimented rain onset delays and erratic rains, but since mid-April heavy rain occurred allover the zone. Due to a long-term crop production decrease and the failure of Meher 2002 (Piguet, 2002), all affected woredas are facing seed problems. Only some composed seed and uncertified local seed are now available. At this stage, Asala seed enterprise production remains expensive and is mostly offering unsuitable seed for subsistence farmers. Almost no sorghum seed and maize katomani maize are available in Awasa and in Asela, the two main seed multiplication centers in south-east Ethiopia.

  • Ethiopia Integrated Agro-Industrial Parks (Scpz) Support Project
    Language: English Original: English PROJECT: ETHIOPIA INTEGRATED AGRO-INDUSTRIAL PARKS (SCPZ) SUPPORT PROJECT COUNTRIES: ETHIOPIA ESIA SUMMARY FOR THE 4 PROPOSED IAIPs AND RTCs LOCATED IN SOUTH WEST AMHARA REGION, CENTRAL EASTERN OROMIA REGION, WESTERN TIGRAY REGION AND EASTERN SNNP REGION, ETHIOPIA. Date: July 2018 Team Leader: C. EZEDINMA, Principal Agro Economist AHFR2 Preparation Team E&S Team Members: E.B. KAHUBIRE, Social Development Officer, RDGE4 /SNSC 1 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1. The Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia (FDRE) committed to a five-year undertaking, as part of the first Growth and Transformation Plan (GTP I) to build the foundation to launch the Country from a predominantly agrarian economy into industrialization. Among the sectors to which the second Growth and Transformation Plan (GTP II) gives emphasis is manufacturing and industrialization to provide the basis for economic structural change; and a central element in this strategy for transforming the industry sector is development and expansion of industrial parks and villages around the country. 1.2. The development of Integrated Agro Industrial Parks (IAIPs) and accompanying Rural Transformation Centres (RTCs) forms part of the government-run Industrial Parks Development Corporations (IPDC) strategy to make Ethiopia’s agricultural sector globally competitive. The concept is driven by a holistic approach to develop integrated Agro Commodity Procurement Zones (ACPZs) and IAIPs with state of-the-art infrastructure with backward and forward linkages based on the Inclusive and Sustainable Industrial Development model. The concept of IAIPs is to integrate various value chain components via the cluster approach. Associated RTCs are to act as collection points for fresh farm feed and agricultural produce to be transported to the IAIPs where the processing, management, and distributing (including export) activities are to take place.
