For this study mixed research design was employed. The study utilized household questionnaire, key informant interview, a focus group discussion and observation. A total of 96 household sampled respondents were randomly selected from the 2 kebeles. For the identification of land use/ land cover change land sat imagery of 2002 ETM+ and 2016 OLI/TIRS were used to determine the change in land use/land cover using objective based classification. Most sample respondents were confirmed that resettlement completely changed land use practices in Mada talila and Ifa bas resettlement kebeles. The current constitution shows that resettlement as negative impact to the land use land cover. Also not only changed land use and land cover change but highly influenced the way of the life of the resettlres. As explained by most respondent deforestation was the consequence of resettlement at the study area, which was the most measurable process of land use and land-cover changes at the study area. Not only deforestation but also land degradation by itself affected indirectly by resettlement. Depending on this finding the researcher conclude that unplanned and unregulated forest cuttings and land cover changes within the study area have had an impact on land degradation, deforestation and seasonal variations of rainfall and drought conditions were serious problems to wellbeing of the resettler.
