Ethiopia: Amhara Alert 21 April 2021
Ethiopia: Amhara Alert 21 April 2021 Unrest in Amhara region will continue, especially around the Oromo Special Zone and the North Shoa area, with clashes and attacks escalating before national elections in June. OVERVIEW Thousands of people protested in Amhara’s regional capital Bahir Dar and surrounding towns and cities on 20 April, claiming that the death toll from last week’s clashes between the country’s largest ethnic groups – the Oromo and Amhara has risen to over 50. This comes as the Ethiopian government declared a State of Emergency in Amhara regional state on 18 April, in response to the increased violence in the area. Local sources citing the Ethiopian Ministry of Defence report that armed clashes have impacted Ataye city and other regions in Oromo Special Zone over the previous three days (16 – 18 April), resulting in an unspecified number of people killed, and major destruction of property. A local official stated that in a 20 April interview that at least 18 locals had been killed in the Oromo Special Zone. Troops have now deployed to the area. ANALYSIS The State of Emergency follows the deaths of at least 300 people in violence in March 2021. This began after an ethnic Oromo religious leader was killed outside a mosque, triggering clashes between Oromo civilians and Amhara security forces. However, the current tensions date back at least to 2019, especially in the western area of the Benishangul-Gumuz region. This has seen ethnic clashes that have led to several hundred casualties, and displaced persons in their thousands. The region is home to over 11 ethnic groups including the Amhara and Oromo people – conflicts have been fuelled by fractions demanding power, resources, and land on both sides of the border between the Oromia and Amhara region. -

Chapter Iii Socio-Economic Characteristics of the Population in Agricultural Households
CHAPTER III SOCIO-ECONOMIC CHARACTERISTICS OF THE POPULATION IN AGRICULTURAL HOUSEHOLDS 1 INTRODUCTION Population as a producer and consumer is closely related with agriculture. On the one hand, population affects production in general and agricultural outputs in particular by furnishing the required labour. On the other hand, the size of a population and its anticipated growth is the main factor determining food consumption requirements. Regarding the balance between population and consumption, if more people are to be fed than the food or services produced, saving and capital investments will be negatively affected. Moreover, population growth also negatively influences agriculture by putting pressure on the environment, such as water, fertility of land, . etc. Population size further influence productivity mainly through the diversification and specialization of the economy, the size of the market, and the importance of foreign trade. Not only the size, but also the socio-economic characteristics of the population of the agricultural households are important to the agricultural production. Study of the nature of the agricultural sector of a country will not be complete without proper understanding of the socio-economic characteristics of the population engaged in it. The population statistics of the agricultural households can be used to describe the characteristics and distribution of the population in space, its density and degree of concentration, the fluctuation in its rate of growth and the movement from one area to another. Data on population and agriculture will also help in finding out what percentage of resources will be needed at a particular time for the meeting of basic needs of the people and what amount of socially useful and productive labour is available in the country, regardless of whether labour or capital intensive techniques will suit the nation's economy. -
Benishangul-Gumuz Region
Situation Analysis of Children and Women: Benishangul-Gumuz Region Situation Analysis of Children and Women: Benishangul-Gumuz Region ABSTRACT The Situation Analysis covers selected dimensions of child well-being in Benishangul-Gumuz Regional State. It builds on the national Situation Analysis of Children and Women in Ethiopia (2019) and on other existing research, with inputs from specialists in Government, UNICEF Ethiopia and other partners. It has an estimated population of approximately 1.1 million people, which constitutes 1.1% of the total Ethiopian population. The population is young: 13 per cent is under-five years of age and 44 per cent is under 18 years of age. Since 1999/00, Benishangul-Gumuz has experienced an impressive 28 percentage point decline in monetary poverty, but 27 per cent of the population are still poor; the second highest in the country after Tigray and higher than the national average of 24 per cent. SITUATION ANALYSIS OF CHILDREN AND WOMEN: BENISHANGUL-GUMUZ REGION 4 Food poverty continued a steep decline from 55 per cent in 1999/00 to 24 per cent in 2015/16; close to the national average of 25 per cent. In Benishangul-Gumuz, in 2014, only 1.1 per cent of rural households were in the PSNP compared to 11 per cent of households at the national level In 2011, the under-five mortality rate in Benishangul-Gumuz was the highest in Ethiopia (169 per 1,000 live births); this declined significantly, but is still very high: 96 deaths per 1,000 births, which is the second highest in the country after Afar. -

In Ethiopia, trypanosomosis is widespread in domestic livestock in the Western, South and Southwestern lowland regions and the associated river systems. The tsetse flies in Ethiopia are confined to the southern and western regions. Out of nine region of Ethiopia, five (Amhara area, Benshangul-Gumuzs, Gambella, Oromia and Southern Nations Nationalities and Peoples‟ Regional State) are infected with more than one species of tsetse flies and there are five species of tsetse flies in those mentioned regions. For this systematic review more than 60 published paper from 2000-2019 which were done in Amhara, Oromia, SNNPRs, Benshamgul Gumize and Gambella regions, respectively. According to this review the overall prevalence of bovine trypanosomosis in five regions of Ethiopia revealed that 8.6%, 9.3%, 11.2%, 10.6% and 18.1% in Amhara, Oromia, SNNPRs, Benshamgul Gumize and Gambella, respectively. Furthermore this review indicted that high infestation of tsetse fly in Oromia region by four species namely Glossina pallidipes, Glossina morsitans, Glossina fuscipes and Glossina tachinoide followed by G. -

Chapter Vi Farm Management Practices 1. Introduction
CHAPTER VI FARM MANAGEMENT PRACTICES 1. INTRODUCTION Agriculture and allied activities have been described as the main sources of much of the raw materials, investment capital, foreign exchange and labor needed for the economic growth. In this regard, improving the performance of the agriculture sector is of critical importance for fast development of the country’s economy. However, agriculture in Ethiopia is characterized by its low productivity. The reason for this is the use of limited modern agricultural techniques and traditional practices as well as the declining soil fertility due to continuous cropping. Among traditional practices used to increase the crop productivity, the most widely used practice has been maintaining soil fertility through long fallow periods and use of dung and crop residue. These gradually become impossible due to the prevailing rapid and uncontrolled population growth, which led to reduction of the fallow lands and fuel wood deficit in the country. The other practice to increase crop production was based on expanding cultivable cropland. However, this scheme has been in practice for a long time and as a result most of the highlands suitable for cropping has already been exhausted. As a result, increasing productivity on various field crops is the only realistic option to raise the living standards of the rural population, and to ensure food security and poverty alleviation. There are many modern techniques and technologies of achieving enhanced crop productivity. Accordingly, the major factors behind achieving high level of crop productivity increases are greater and more efficient use of fertilizers, wide spread uses of improved variety seeds, pesticides, expanded use of irrigation and effective extension services.
