Abstract
Ethiopia is one of the most populous countries in Africa, with over 85% of the total
population dependent on agriculture. Massive deforestation in the past and missing soil and
water conservation (SWC) measures cause severe soil erosion problems in the northern
highlands of Ethiopia. Different SWC methods are supposed to prevent ongoing land
degradation. A common technique used is the construction of stone bunds. Though the expected
effect is a reduction of surface runoff and soil loss, their behaviour and effectiveness is not
always clear, and their performance seems to be strongly dependant on their age.
