Effect of deficit irrigation on growth and yield of onion, Allium cepa
The effect of deficit irrigation (DI) on the yield and yield components of onion was studied with a budget support of ICARDA. In the study area, irrigation practices are common mainly for two crops, onion and garlic. The ...
Improving Agricultural Extension Systems for Wider Adoption of Technologies: Project highlights and main objectives
This introduction on the project inception workshop summarizes the project highlights and main objectives of the project Designing effective Extension Service Delivery Systems for Enhancing Wider Adoption of Agricultural ...
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 ...
Phenotypic variability and characteristics of lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) germplasm of Ethiopia by multivariate analysis
Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik) is an important crop in Ethiopian highlands. Its productivity is very low
due to low yielding landraces and other factors. The objectives of this study were to classify groups of
genotypes ...
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.
Identification of genetic sources of improved responses to nitrogen fixing rhizobacteria and other plant growth promoting microbes
This is report of Nitrogen fixation
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 ...
Assessing the impact of soil and water conservation structures in the Ethiopian highlands. A case study from the Lake Tana Basin.
Without well planned adaptation efforts climate change is predicted to affect the agricultural
sector in Eastern Africa and to ultimately reduce agricultural yields and hamper efforts to achieve
food security and reduce ...
Genetic Diversity Study of Ethiopian Faba Bean (Vicia faba L.) Varieties Using Phenotypic Traits, ISSR and SNP Markers
Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) is one of the earliest food legumes of the world used as source of high protein for human and animal consumption. In Ethiopia, no studies were conducted on faba bean varieties genetic diversity ...
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 ...
