Report on Tracking Adoption of Improved Barley Varieties in Ethiopia
Varietal output and adoption in barley, chickpea, faba bean, field pea, and lentil in Ethiopia, Eritrea, and Sudan
This chapter focuses on the improvements in the production of barley, chickpea, faba bean, field pea and lentil in Ethiopia, Eritrea and Sudan. Information on cultivar output and adoption of these crops is also presented.
Reliable high-throughput Phenotyping Tools to assess Adaptive Traits for Wheat in Drought Environments
This project successfully demonstrated the value of ICARDA’s elite drought nurseries for the CWANA region and highlighted the opportunity to breed for specific adaptations. The great environmental diversity of the CWANA ...
Trends in Global and National Grain Legume Production and Trade: Implications on Local Chickpea and Lentil production Dynamics: The Case of Gimbichu and Minjar-Shenkora Districts of Ethiopia
The purpose of this study was to examine the major drivers of change shaping the current lentil and chickpea production dynamics and identify and prioritize researchable areas for further in-depth study in the future.
The ...
Gender Perspectives on the Dynamics of Lentil and Chickpea Production: the Case of Gimbichu and Minjar-Shenkora Districts, Ethiopia
Ethiopia has different agro-ecologies conducive for producing different crops. The country is the home of different pulse grain production and it was increased between 2000-2012 (Vincent and Jason 2013). Twelve pulse types ...
Commercial behaviours of smallholder farmers in wheat seed use and its implication for demand assessment in Ethiopia
The article presents the commercial behaviour and its determinants of smallholder farmers in wheat seed use, and its implication for seed demand assessment, based on primary data from 524 wheat farmers in the major wheat ...
Current Situation, Investment Opportunities, and Future Outlooks of Malt Barley Production in Ethiopia

Adoption Study of Improved Barley Varieties in Ethiopia
Poverty eradication is the fundamental development agenda of the government of Ethiopia. In response to this, all the development policies and strategies of the country are oriented towards the achievement of this goal. ...
Modeling Farmers’ Adoption Decisions of Multiple Crop Technologies: The Case of Barley and Potatoes in Ethiopia
This paper argues and provides empirical evidence that adoption decisions on multiple technologies involve a series of three sequential sub-decisions. Using a multivariate tobit and multivariate probit models and a nationally ...
A Multivariate Analysis of Factors Affecting Adoption of Improved Varieties of Multiple Crops: A Case Study from Ethiopian Highlands
This paper analyzes the synergies/tradeoffs involved in the adoption of improved varieties of
multiple crops in the mixed crop-livestock production systems of the highlands of Ethiopia A
multivariate probit (MVP) model ...
