Farming practices and breeding objectives identification of farmer in north shoa and south wello zones of Amhara region
The study aims at assessing the production systems and identifying the traits preferred by farmers in the study areas to establish community-based breeding and sustainable utilization programs. The study was conducted in ...
CGIAR germplasm health units apply a systems approach to germplasm seed health protection for conservation and safe international distribution
Germplasm seed exchange from CGIAR genebanks and breeding is important to global
agricultural research and development programs. Seed as a pathway for pest spread is an
inherent risk for international seed exchanges. ...
Reproductive performance and productivity of local and Dorper x local crossbred ewes under community-based management system, Ethiopia
This study evaluated the reproductive and productivity of local and Dorper crossbred ewes in a community-based management system. We analyzed data collected from 2013 to 2021, taking into account different factors such as ...
Narrowing the skill and knowledge gaps of young researchers on pest surveillances, diagnostics and integrated pest and disease management on wheat and food legumes in East Africa and CWANA regions
Many young researchers working in plant protections lacks skills and knowledge on pest and disease
surveillances, identification, disease/pest measurements, pest and disease dynamics, Integrated Pest and
Disease Management ...
Seed transmission rates of Pea seed-borne mosaic virus among lentil genotypes in Ethiopia
Evaluation of Pea seed-borne mosaic virus (PSbMV, genus Potyvirus, family Potyviridae) seed transmission rate among 62 different lentil genotypes was carried out during 2021-2023 at Amhara Regional Agricultural Research ...
Demonstration and scaling of integrated management of parasitic weeds on faba bean in Northern Ethiopia and Morocco
Cool-season food legumes (faba bean, field pea, chickpea and lentil) are important crops for food,
income generation, animal feed and improving soil fertility through nitrogen fixation in Ethiopia and
Morocco. The productivity ...
Can a cash crop be a women’s crop?: Examining gender norms, relations and equity around lentil commercialization in Ethiopia
The benefits of subsistence-crop commercialization may depend on gender norms and relations.
In sub-Saharan Africa, crop commercialization has been shown to often have unequal outcomes
for women and men due to pre-existing ...
AMMI and GGE Biplot Analyses for Mega-Environment Identification and Selection of Some High-Yielding Oat (Avena sativa L.) Genotypes for Multiple Environments
This paper reports an evaluation of eleven oat genotypes in four environments for two consecutive years to identify high-biomass-yielding, stable, and broadly adapted genotypes in selected parts of Ethiopia. Genotypes were ...
Effect of Nutritional Flushing Using Long-Term Energy and Protein Supplementation on Growth Performance and Reproductive Parameters of Doyogena Ewes in Ethiopia
Nutritional flushing has the potential to increase reproduction in small ruminants. Utilization of locally available feed resources is imperative if smallholder farmers are to adopt improved nutritional strategies for ...
Oat–Field Pea Intercropping for Sustainable Oat Production: Effect on Yield, Nutritive Value and Environmental Impact
The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of Oat–field pea intercropping on the yield, nutritive value, and environmental impact of oat grown under a reduced level of nitrogen fertilisation. The trial was laid out in ...
