    ETHIOPIA MONTHLY MARKET October WATCH 2011 ETHIOPIA MONTHLY MARKET WATCH October 2011 Highlights The Year to Year country level general and food inflation rate increased by 39.8% and 51.7% respectively. Cereal inflation rate increased by 63.1%. The Ethiopian Grain Trade Enterprise has started the sale of subsidised wheat to the urban consumers at US $ 321/mt which is far below the import parity and private traders’ retail prices. Maize, wheat and sorghum import parity prices remained the same at the elevated level with slight decline of 3% to 4% against last month. The local price at Addis Ababa stood below the import parity prices by 44% for maize, 19% higher for wheat and equivalent with sorghum price. In most monitored markets, retail prices of cereal showed a declining trend but still stood above last year the same time. The decreasing price is associated with the progression of upcoming Meher season harvest. The average price of shoat at Dire Dawa and Jijiga remained the same with slight changes but at Gode declined by 7%. However, the terms of trade remained the same due to marginal decline of cereal price. Special issues Subsidised wheat sale: The Government (Ethiopian Grain Trade Enterprise) has started the sale of imported wheat grain to urban consumers through the local level Government institution, kebele, particularly in the capital, Addis Ababa. The selling price of grain wheat is decided at US $ 321/mt at exchange rate of Birr 17.13 against US Dollar. The Government has subsidized the selling price and it stood far below the import parity price.

  • Urbanization in Ethiopia: Study on Growth, Patterns, Functions and Alternative Policy Strategy Tsegaye Tegenu
    Urbanization in Ethiopia: Study on Growth, Patterns, Functions and Alternative Policy Strategy Tsegaye Tegenu, Department of Human Geography, Stockholm University Stockholm, 2010 1. Background and Purpose Forty years ago Gamst characterize Ethiopian civilization as “Peasantries and Elites without Urbanism”. He was referring to a presence of a social organization and high culture civilization in which cities were absent (Gamst 1970). Thirty years later, researchers were still talking about “urban deserts” in Ethiopia, despite the acceleration of urbanization, with an average growth rate between 4,4 and 5,6 per cent a year (Golini, 2001). A recent urbanization study that used an agglomeration index as a methodology concluded that “a large share of the population still resides more than 10 hours travel time from an urban center” (Schmidt and Kedir, 2009). Even though the background to the state of urban growth and urbanization is related to the predatory nature of the Ethiopian state (Tegenu 1996), in this paper the focus is on a period of globalization and start of demographic transition in Ethiopia (Malmberg 2008, Tegenu 2004). The main purpose of this study is to examine the causes, patterns, consequences and policy implications of the ongoing urbanization in Ethiopia. • First, it provides statistics about the scale and nature of the urban population change and the demographic causes that contribute to this change. To understand the speed of change comparison is made with other African countries; • Second, it attempts to explain the level, pattern and trends of urbanization by examining the links between the function of towns and government policy; • Finally, it provides policy suggestion by highlighting the consequences of rapid urbanization, reviewing of government policy and considering causes for the low level of urbanization.
