The study presented here is a result of collaborative efforts among researchers in the
International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA) and Gondar Agricultural
Research Center (GARC). We gratefully ...
Demonstration and Evaluation of Water Harvesting and Supplementary Irrigation to improve Green pepper productivity
The effect of supplementary irrigation (SI) and nitrogen (N) fertiliser on the yield and yield components of green pepper was studied at Gumara-Maksegnit watershed, Gondar Zuria woreda, Amhara Region, Ethiopia, with budget ...
Soil and water conservation effects of stone bunds at different scales – a case study from Gumara-Maksegnit watershed, Lake Tana Basin, Ethiopia
Various soil and water conservation (SWC) interventions across the Ethiopian farmlands are supposed to prevent ongoing land degradation and soil depletion related to rainfall driven soil erosion.
Socio-economic characterization of Gumara-Maksegnit watershed
Watershed degradation in Ethiopia has been intensified by a combination of factors such as improper agricultural practices on steep slopes, indiscriminate cutting of trees for fuel and construction and illegal/improper ...
Assessment of gully erosion using conventional field measurements: A case study from northern Ethiopia
In Ethiopia, one of the poorest countries
in the world, soil erosion by water
contributes significantly to food insecurity
of rural households and represents
a real threat to sustainability of the existing
subsistence ...
Evaluation of the Impact of Stone Bunds on Soil Loss and Surface Runoff in the Gumara Maksegnit Watershed, Northern Highlands of Ethiopia.
Ethiopia is highly affected by land degradation and one of the key problems is soil erosion. It is mainly caused by
the rapid population increase, deforestation, low vegetation cover and unbalanced livestock and crop ...
Participatory adaptation of hot pepper varieties for green pod production under irrigation
The present situation in North Gondar Zone indicates that, there are limited Capsicum species and varieties including both improved and the local ones. As a result, varietal information for the improvement of the crop for ...
