ABSTRACT The study was conducted in Lay Armachiho District of Central Gondar Zone of Amhara Region to characterize the milk production systems. A cross sectional survey research design and onfarm monitoring were employed ...

ABSTRACT In agricultural production, the pulses take the second share among grain crops, of which chickpea is the major ones. To increase production and productivity of crops the use of improved seeds is one of the most ...

Although Potassium (K) is a macronutrient, however it is not widely used as a commercial fertilizer for agricultural crop production such as tef (Eragrostis tef (Zucc.) in many parts of Ethiopia. Therefore, this study was ...

Fertilizer recommendation based on effective calibrating soil tests against yield responses to applied nutrient has been little used in Ethiopia. A field experiment was conducted at Dera District, Northwest Ethiopia in ...

ABSTRACT Post-harvest loss of the food product is significant given the lower total agricultural productivity in Sub-Saharan Africa. Although the maize production potential in Ethiopia, especially in West Gojjam zone, ...

In Tach Karnuary watershed higher land degradation and soil erosion problems has a deleterious impact on soil fertility due to land use types and slope grdient variation. The objective of the study was to evaluate effects ...

The problem of natural phenomena and interference of human activities were aggravating soil fertility degradation (erosion and overgrazing). The objective of the study was to investigate effects of land use types and ...

Soil acidity is the major soil chemical constraints which limit agricultural productivity in the highlands of Ethiopia receiving high rainfall. This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of different lime application ...

Runoff and erosion problems are commonly observed in the study area due to its steep and plugged topography which has an adverse impact on soil physicochemical properties and crop productivity. The study was conducted ...

Phosphorus(P) sorption is the main limiting factor for P availability in acidic soils and requires large application of inorganic fertilizers to attain maximum crop yield, which is not environmentally friendly and ...
