Design and Development of IBLI for Southern Ethiopia Index insurance for agriculture in Ethiopia Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, 9 December 2010 Design and Development of IBLI for Southern Ethiopia Andrew G. Mude International Livestock Research Institute Outline Developing IBLI Ethiopia Research Agenda Ø Objective – To discover the viability and poverty reduction impacts of index-insurance and establish whether, how and when these impacts can be realized and sustained Ø Key Steps • Design a livelihood-focused IBLI • Identify suitable contract structure • Identify suitable delivery mechanisms • Address impacts of climate change and induce climate change adaptation Existing Data Longitudinal household data Ø PARIMA (2000-02) Borana and Guji Zones Note on Studied Sites: • Quarterly household GELANA ABAYA PARIMA’s Kebele BORE Desta’s Town Center survey (30 hhs/kebele) URAGA ADOLANA WADERA • 5 kebeles in 4 woredas HAGERE MARYAM ODO SHAKISO Negele Ø Desta (1999)’s Herd Finchawa Qorate LIBEN Yabelo Recalls Data TELTELE Arero YEBELO Dida Hara (1981-97) Wachille ARERO • Annual household Dillo MOYALE Mega herd recalls (~15 hhs/ DIRE KENYA KENYA center) Moyale • 35-km radius of 4 town centers Existing Data Longitudinal household data Ø Livestock Mortality rate (%) 8 7 Livestock Mortality experienced in PARIMA (2000-02) PARIMA (2000-02) 50% 6 Drought 40% 5 Dida Hara Disease 30% Dillo CCPP 20% 4 Finchara Predator Snake bite 10% Qorate 3 Accident Livestock loss (TLU) per household Wachille 0% Aging LR2000 LD2000 SR2000 SD2001 LR2001 LD2001 SR2001 SD2002 LR20022 Others 1 0 LR 2000 LD 2000 SR 2000 SD 2001 LR 2001 LD 2001 SR 2001 SD 2002 LR 2002 50% Livestock Mortality Recalls in Desta's Data (1981-1997) 40% 30% Yabello Mega 20% Negele 10% Arero 0% 1981 1982 1983 1984 1985 1986 1987 1988 1989 1990 1991 1992 1993 1994 1995 1996 1997 Existing Data NDVI and Livestock Mortality Satellite imagery NDVI (8km resolution, available every 10 days in real-time) Gelana Abaya Bore Bore Gelana Abaya Bore Gelana Abaya Uraga Uraga Adolana Wadera Uraga Adolana Wadera Adolana Wadera HegermariamOdo Shakiso HegermariamOdo Shakiso HegermariamOdo Shakiso Liben Liben Liben Yabelo Yabelo Yabelo Telt ele Telt ele Telt ele Arero Arero Arero Moyale Moyale Moyale Dire Dire Dire Drought 2000 Drought 2009 Good forage condition 2010 Standardized NDVI 4 3 2 1 0 -1 -2 -3 Drought 84-85 Drought 90-91 Drought 99-00 Drought 05-06 Drought 09 50% 40% Key Questions: 30% 20% 10% 1.

What drives vulnerability among pastoral settings of Ethiopia is not well documented. Department of Preventive Medicine, School of Public Health, Addis Ababa Objectives: This study aims to identify drivers of vulnerability to HIV infection among the University, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia Borana pastoral community of Ethiopia. Methods: Data were collected during 2008–2009 as part of a PhD work and subsequently in 2014 and 2016, during a follow-up visit to Borana. Data on perceived threats of HIV, facilita- tors of vulnerability, coping mechanisms and perceived consequences were collected by trained research assistants using topic guides developed for this purpose. In-depth and key informant interviews and Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) with selected married men and women, opinion leaders, and HIV focal persons of public sectors and Non Governmental Organizations in Teltele, Arero, Yabelo and Moyale were carried out. Sample transcripts were checked for consistency and Video abstract completeness before data collection was completed. Two qualitative researchers read transcripts and suggested themes and subthemes in reference to the objective of the study. Transcripts were imported to MAXQDA software.

Vol. 9, No. 1, 2021, pp. 1-5. doi: 10.11648/j.ab.20210901.11 Received : January 6, 2021; Accepted : January 26, 2021; Published : January 30, 2021 Abstract: A study was conducted with the objective to identify adaptable, high biomass, good quality and seed yield of Pegeon pea cultivars at Adola sub-site of Bore Agricultural research center. Four pegeon pea cultivars Tsigas, Degagsa-75, Belabas-27 and 16555 were tested in RCBD with three replications. The analysis of variation revealed that significant (P<0.05) differ in days to 90% maturity were observed among cultivars. Among tested cultivars Belabas 27 was significantly earlier (162 days) to maturity, while late matured cultivar was Degagsa (203 days). Analysis of variance showed highly significant differences (P<0.01) were observed among cultivars for number of primary branches per plant. Higher branch number was recorded for Tsigas cultivar (21.6) whereas the lowest branch number was obtained from cultivar Degagsa-75 (9.75). The cultivars were significant (P<0.05) differ for pod length. The long pod was recorded from cultivar 16555 (5 cm) while the short pod length was recorded from cultivar Belabas -27 (3.14 cm).

  • ETHIOPIA Ethiopia Is a Federal Republic Led by Prime
    ETHIOPIA Ethiopia is a federal republic led by Prime Minister Meles Zenawi and the Ethiopian People's Revolutionary Democratic Front (EPRDF). The population is estimated at 82 million. In the May national parliamentary elections, the EPRDF and affiliated parties won 545 of 547 seats to remain in power for a fourth consecutive five-year term. In simultaneous elections for regional parliaments, the EPRDF and its affiliates won 1,903 of 1,904 seats. In local and by-elections held in 2008, the EPRDF and its affiliates won all but four of 3.4 million contested seats after the opposition parties, citing electoral mismanagement, removed themselves from the balloting. Although there are more than 90 ostensibly opposition parties, which carried 21 percent of the vote nationwide in May, the EPRDF and its affiliates, in a first-past-the-post electoral system, won more than 99 percent of all seats at all levels. Although the relatively few international officials that were allowed to observe the elections concluded that technical aspects of the vote were handled competently, some also noted that an environment conducive to free and fair elections was not in place prior to election day. Several laws, regulations, and procedures implemented since the 2005 national elections created a clear advantage for the EPRDF throughout the electoral process. Political parties were predominantly ethnically based, and opposition parties remained splintered. During the year fighting between government forces, including local militias, and the Ogaden National Liberation Front (ONLF), an ethnically based, violent insurgent movement operating in the Somali region, resulted in continued allegations of human rights abuses by all parties to the conflict.
