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. -

Ethnobotany, Diverse Food Uses, Claimed Health Benefits And
Shewayrga and Sopade Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine 2011, 7:19 http://www.ethnobiomed.com/content/7/1/19 JOURNAL OF ETHNOBIOLOGY AND ETHNOMEDICINE RESEARCH Open Access Ethnobotany, diverse food uses, claimed health benefits and implications on conservation of barley landraces in North Eastern Ethiopia highlands Hailemichael Shewayrga1* and Peter A Sopade2,3 Abstract Background: Barley is the number one food crop in the highland parts of North Eastern Ethiopia produced by subsistence farmers grown as landraces. Information on the ethnobotany, food utilization and maintenance of barley landraces is valuable to design and plan germplasm conservation strategies as well as to improve food utilization of barley. Methods: A study, involving field visits and household interviews, was conducted in three administrative zones. Eleven districts from the three zones, five kebeles in each district and five households from each kebele were visited to gather information on the ethnobotany, the utilization of barley and how barley end-uses influence the maintenance of landrace diversity. Results: According to farmers, barley is the “king of crops” and it is put for diverse uses with more than 20 types of barley dishes and beverages reportedly prepared in the study area. The products are prepared from either boiled/roasted whole grain, raw- and roasted-milled grain, or cracked grain as main, side, ceremonial, and recuperating dishes. The various barley traditional foods have perceived qualities and health benefits by the farmers. Fifteen diverse barley landraces were reported by farmers, and the ethnobotany of the landraces reflects key quantitative and qualitative traits. Some landraces that are preferred for their culinary qualities are being marginalized due to moisture shortage and soil degradation. -

Economic Efficiency of Smallholder Farmers in Barley Production in Meket District, Ethiopia

Received 10 May, 2018; Accepted 31 July, 2018 This study analyzed the economic efficiency of smallholder farmers in barley production in the case of Meket district, Amhara National Regional State, Ethiopia. A cross sectional data collected from a sample of 123 barley producers during the 2015/2016 production season was used for the analysis. Two stages random sampling method was used to select sample respondents. The translog functional form was chosen to estimate both production and cost functions and OLS estimation method was applied to identify allocative and economic inefficiencies factors, while technical inefficiency factors were analyzed by using single stage estimation approach. The estimated stochastic production frontier model indicated input variables such as fertilizer, human labor and oxen power as significant variables that increase the quantity of barley output, while barley seed had a negative effect. The estimated mean levels of technical, allocative and economic efficiencies of the sample farmers were about 70.9, 68.6 and 48.8%, respectively which revealed the presence of a room to increase their technical, allocative and economic efficiencies level on average by 29.1, 31.4 and 51.2%, respectively with the existing resources. -

Interagency Rapid Protection Assessment - Bahir Dar, Amhara Region
Interagency Rapid Protection Assessment - Bahir Dar, Amhara Region 18-19 December 2018 MISSION OBJECTIVE / PURPOSE: In mid-December 2018, the Protection Cluster was informed of the arrival of approximately 1,200 Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) from Kamashi zone in Benishangul-Gumuz region to Bahir Dar in Amhara region. Amhara regional DRM confirmed the numbers and added that an upwards of 200 IDPs continue to arrive Bahir Dar on a daily basis. The IDPs are of Amharic ethnicity, whom have reported instances of GBV and human rights violations, suffered in Kamashi and en route to Bahir Dar. The Protection Cluster conducted an interagency Rapid Protection Assessment between the 18th – 19th December, to better understand the protection needs of the new arrivals to Bahir Dar, as well as the conditions in Kamashi zone. As humanitarian access to Kamashi zone is restricted, the total number of IDPs and conditions in Kamashi, remains largely unknown by the humanitarian community. The aim of a Rapid Protection Assessment is to assist the Protection Cluster and protection agencies to collect relevant information to identify key protection concerns and information gaps according to an agreed common methodology, which included: key informant interviews, focus group discussions and observations.
