  • Determinants of Loan Repayment Performance of Smallholder Farmers in Horro and Abay Choman Woredas of Horoguduru- Wollega Zone, Oromia Region, Ethiopia
    Journal of Agricultural Economics and Rural Development Vol. 5(3), pp. 648-655, December, 2019. © www.premierpublishers.org, ISSN: 2167-0477 Research Article Determinants of Loan Repayment Performance of Smallholder Farmers in Horro and Abay Choman woredas of Horoguduru- Wollega Zone, Oromia Region, Ethiopia *1Amsalu File, 2Oliyad Sori 1Wollega University, The Campus’s Finance Head, P.O. Box 38, Ethiopia 2Wollega University, Department of Agricultural Economics, P.O. Box 38, Ethiopia Credit repayment is one of the dominant importance for viable financial institutions. This study was aimed to identify determinants of loan repayment capacity of smallholder farmers in Horro and Abay-Chomen Woredas. The study used primary data from a sample of formal credit borrower farmers in the two woredas through structured questionnaire. A total of 120 farm households were interviewed during data collection and secondary data were collected from different organizations. The logit model results indicated that a total of fourteen explanatory variables were included in the model of which six variables were found to be significant.; among these variables, family size and expenditure in social ceremonies negatively while, credit experience, livestock, extension contact and income from off-farm activities positively influenced the loan repayment performance of smallholder farmers in the study areas. Based on the result, the study recommended that the lending institution should give attention on loan supervision and management while the borrowers should give attention on generating alternative source of income to pay the loans which is vital as it provides information that would enable to undertake effective measures with the aim of improving loan repayment in the study area.

  • Vulnerability Analysis of Smallholder
    Tessema and Simane Ecological Processes (2019) 8:5 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13717-019-0159-7 RESEARCH Open Access Vulnerability analysis of smallholder farmers to climate variability and change: an agro- ecological system-based approach in the Fincha’a sub-basin of the upper Blue Nile Basin of Ethiopia Israel Tessema1,2* and Belay Simane1 Abstract Background: Ethiopia is frequently cited as a country that is highly vulnerable to climate variability and change. The country’s high vulnerability arises mostly from climate-sensitive agricultural sector that suffers a lot from risks associated with rainfall variability. The vulnerability factors (exposure, sensitivity, and adaptive capacity) of the agricultural livelihoods to climate variability and change differ across agro-ecological systems (AESs). Therefore, the aim of this study was to analyze AES-specific vulnerability of smallholder farmers to climate variability and change in the Fincha’a sub-basin. We surveyed 380 respondents from 4 AESs (highland, midland, wetland, and lowland) randomly selected. Furthermore, focus group discussion and key informant interviews were also performed to supplement and substantiate the quantitative data. Livelihood vulnerability index was employed to analyze the levels of smallholders’ agriculture vulnerability to climate variability and change. Data on socioeconomic and biophysical attribute were collected and combined into the indices and vulnerability score was calculated for each agro-ecological system. Results: Considerable variation was observed across the agro-ecological systems in profile, indicator, and the three livelihood vulnerability indices-Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change dimensions (exposure, sensitivity, and adaptive capacity) of vulnerability. The lowland AES exhibited higher exposure, low adaptive capacity, and high vulnerability, while the midland AES demonstrated lower exposure, higher adaptive capacity, and lower vulnerability.

Box, 395, Nekempt, Ethiopia 2Gardega-Jarte, Agricultural Office, P.O. Box, Shambu, Ethiopia Abstract: The aim of the study was to estimate technical efficiency of smallholder farmers in maize production in case of Jardega Jarte districts with specific objectives to estimate the level of technical efficiency and to identify factors affecting technical efficiency in the study area. The study used cross-sectional data and the data were collected from sample representative respondents of 168 randomly selected farm households. Cobb-Douglas production function and the Stochastic Frontier Model were used to identify factors influencing productivity and efficiency. The hypotheses tests confirm that, the adequacy of Cobb-Douglas the appropriateness of using SFA the joint statistical significance of inefficiency effects; the appropriateness of using Half- normal and Exponential distribution for one sided error; and nature of the stochastic production function. The maximum likelihood parameter estimates showed that all input variables have positive and significant effect on production. The estimated Cob Douglas production function revealed that all inputs labor in hour, maize cultivated land, Dap, Urea, Seed, oxen have positive

This paper examined the complementary feeding knowledge, attitude and practice of mothers and nutritional status of infants/young children in Jima Ganati District employing the cross sectional survey data conducted among 353 mothers of children aged 6-23 months. The result from the logit regression Education levels of mothers, age of mothers and mother occupation had a significant effect on mothers’ complementary feeding knowledge, attitude and nutritional status of infants/young children. In this study 54.6%, 60.4% and 34.6% of mothers had good knowledge, attitude and practice on complementary feeding respectively. Keywords: complementary feeding; knowledge; attitude; logit model; nutritional status. DOI : 10.7176/JCSD/49-02 Publication date :June 30th 2019 1. Introduction In the manufacturing sector today, human capital is still essential for most factories to carry out a variety of Poor infant feeding practices are known to have adverse consequences on the health and nutritional status of children, which in turn have consequences on the development of the child both physically and mentally (UNICEF, 2006). In Ethiopia almost 70% of the infants were reported to sub-optimally breastfed and 24% of death among infants was attributed to poor and inappropriate breastfeeding practices.
