Abstract

Ginger is one of the most widely used spices as a flavouring agent around the world. It is also an important crop in Ethiopia in terms of production, local consumption, and export, owing to the availability of favourable climatic and edaphic conditions and a long tradition of production. Ginger production, however, is limited to a few pockets in southern Ethiopia and a few areas in southwestern Oromia and north Amhara despite the country’s huge potential for ginger production. In recent years, after the ginger bacterial wilt pandemic, production and export were hampered, seriously limiting its economic contribution at household and economy-wide. To resolve the problems, research and development efforts have been made. However, the adoption and implementation of the recommended practices are very limited. This working paper presents a general overview of ginger production and marketing, prevailing challenges, and recommended interventions to revitalize ginger production and marketing.

11. Drivers of Farm-level Adoption of Crop Extension Packages in Ethiopia

Abstract

Smallholder farmers’ adoption of agricultural technologies varies to a great degree with respect to spatial diversity, household related characteristics, access to infrastructure and institutional design. This cross-sectional study was conducted in order to understand the factors affecting the uptake agricultural technologies in the highlands of Ethiopia. Analysis was conducted on data collected in 2014 from a survey of 2,880 households in four major regions of the country covering 30 districts. Econometric method (two-limit Tobit model) was used to analyse determinants of farm-level adoption of crop technology packages promoted by the national agricultural extension service. Findings reveal that 71%, 66%, 60%, 52%, 46% and 29% of the sample households adopted recommended technology packages for potato, wheat, maize, tef, barley, and sorghum respectively. Results demonstrate that agro-ecology and spatial variability, distance from homestead to farm plots, slope index of the farm, access to extension services, access to credit, lagged gross annual income and membership to a cooperatives were all significant factors influencing technology adoption. The study shows there is significant variation in technology adoption between model farmers and non-model farmers. However, the productivity difference is limited to few crops. The findings suggest that investment in infrastructure, promoting access to institutional services and access to credit are instrumental to technology adoption by smallholders. The extension strategy should therefore promote inclusive strategy in which both model and non-model farmers have equal access to technology supply and extension services.

13. Scaling modern technology or scaling exclusion? The socio-political dynamics of accessing in malt barley innovation in two highland communities in Southern Ethiopia

Abstract

In this article we explore whether and how the dynamics of access shape the scaling of modern agricultural technologies. It is based on the experience of an agricultural research for development (AR4D) project called CASCAPE, which aims to validate and scale agricultural best practices for smallholder farmers in Ethiopia. The socio-political dynamics of external interventions are often taken for granted contextual factors in AR4D projects.By contrast, this article takes this context as the point of departure for its analysis. The aim of this in-depth case study is to unpack the concept of access as condition for scaling of agricultural technologies. We identify and analyse the mechanisms that determine access to the various components of a malt barley technology package which was introduced in two highland communities in southern Ethiopia (and later ‘scaled’ to a range of other communities). Our research approach is technographic, implying that we consider the technology to contain both material and social components. The findings suggest that social and clan-based exchange mechanisms(such as clan-based loyalty, reciprocity and vertical accountability) are often rendered invisible even though they are of critical importance in governing access to the material and social components of modern agricultural technologies. Ignoring this socio-political context in the malt barley interventions resulted in an unintended scaling effect in terms of widening the social and economic gap between a few better off farmers and a larger group of poor farmers. The paper thus provides evidence that the socio-political dynamics of access to technology can have an important influence on its wide spread application and may complicate efforts to scale the uptake of technology. Paying more attention to such processes would help to improve the effectiveness of AR4D efforts.

16. Patterns and structure of household income inequality in rural Ethiopia

Author

Gebeyehu, Birkinesh, Feleke, Shiferaw, Tufa, Adane, Argaw, Thomas Lemma, Tefera, Tewodros, Manyong, Victor, Gebeyehu, Birkinesh, Feleke, Shiferaw, Tufa, Adane, Argaw, Thomas Lemma, Tefera, Tewodros, and Manyong, Victor

Abstract

The report examines patterns of gender income inequality in rural Ethiopia and draws insights and implications on whether income growth policy should be gender-neutral or gender-responsive. The report also examines the structure of the income distribution and draws insights and implications on whether income distribution policy should primarily address the disparity in income across the households within the same group or the gap between the different groups.

Abstract

I denne masteroppgaven er det sett nærmere på hvor godt pelspisser klarer å trenge ned i fjell ved ramming med fallodd. Oppgaven er en del av et prosjekt Statens vegvesen har satt i gang for å øke kunnskapen rundt ramming av peler med bergspiss i fjell.Som en del av oppgaven ble det gjennomført forsøk der modeller av virkelige pelspisser ble rammet mot ulike bergarter. Det ble undersøkt hvilken effekt spissens geometri, herding av spissen og forboring av steinen har for nedtrengingsevnen til spissen i ulike bergarter.Videre er teorien bak ulike materialmodeller beregnet på modellering av fjell gjennomgått. En av disse materialmodellene er blitt brukt til å utføre numeriske analyser med elementprogrammet IMPETUS for å verifisere resultatene fra forsøket.Forsøkene og analysene viser at ulike spisser har til dels svært ulik oppførsel når de blir rammet mot forskjellige bergarter. De fleste spissene klarte å trenge ned i fjellet, og oppnå sikkert feste. I et par av forsøkene ble imidlertid spissen svært deformert, og det er usikkert om de ville tålt videre ramming mot fjell.
