Application of deep tillage and Berken Maresha for hardpan sites to improve infiltration and crop productivity [Abstract only] por Muche, H., Abdela, M., Schmitter, Petra S., Nakawuka, Prossie, Tilahun, Seifu A., Steenhuis, Tammo S., Langan, Simon J.

“…We studied the impact of improved tillage practices on infiltration, erosion, runoff and crop productivity during the rainy period of 2016 in Robit-Bata watershed located in upper Blue Nile, Ethiopia. The experiments were carried out in Maize fields where four tillage treatments were compared: (i) no-till (NT), no ploughing; (ii) conventional (CT), plots tilled three times using oxen driven Maresha, (iii) deep (DT), manual digging up to 60 cm using a mattock and (iv) Berken tillage (BT), plots tilled three times using an oxen driven Berken plough. …”

Learning from adaptive collaborative management: A participatory tool to support adaptive and reflective learning in multi-stakeholder forums por Sarmiento Barletti, J.P.

“…Given the current interest and investment in MSFs in development and conservation circles, CIFOR worked with subnational MSFs organized for more sustainable land and resource use in Brazil, Ethiopia, Indonesia, and Peru. Research revealed that although much optimism is placed on MSFs, their organizers believed their forums fostered equity simply by inviting more actors to the table and thus placed little effort on addressing the power inequalities between their participants. …”

Genetic characterization and genome-wide association mapping for stem rust resistance in spring bread wheat por Shewabez, Elias, Bekele, Endashaw, Alemu, Admas, Mugnai, Laura, Tadesse, Wuletaw

“…To accomplish this, 245 elite lines introduced from the International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA) were evaluated under natural stem rust pressure in the field at the Debre Zeit Agricultural Research Center, Ethiopia. The single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) marker data was retrieved from a 15 K SNP wheat array. …”

Profiling of bean seed and variety information dissemination channels used by seed producers in Eastern and Southern Africa por Rubyogo, Jean-Claude, Aseete, Paul, Kalemer, Sylvia

“…For example, despite having new maize varieties, the average age of maize varieties in farmers’ fields is 15-20 years (Marcho et al., 2020), the age of rice varieties grown by farmers in India is 25 years (Marcho et al., 2020), and varietal turnover for common bean is 19 years in Ethiopia (Habte, et al., 2021). Having low variety turn over makes several dollars invested in developing new varieties go to waste since the superior varieties are not in use and not in farmer hands. …”

Foreign direct investment and knowledge diffusion in poor locations por Adebe, Girum, McMillan, Margaret S., Serafinelli, Michel

“…We use plant level census data to identify spillovers from FDI in Ethiopia's manufacturing sector. Spillovers are identified by comparing changes in total factor productivity (TFP) among domestic plants in districts where a large greenfield foreign plant produces and districts where FDI in the same industry was licensed but not yet operational. …”

Africa’s manufacturing puzzle: Evidence from Tanzanian and Ethiopian firms por Diao, Xinshen, Ellis, Mia, McMillan, Margaret S., Rodrik, Dani

“…To shed light on this puzzle, we disaggregate firms in the manufacturing sector by size using two newly created panels of manufacturing firms, one for Tanzania covering 2008-2016 and one for Ethiopia covering 1996-2017. Our analysis reveals a dichotomy between larger firms that exhibit superior productivity performance but do not expand employment much, and small firms that absorb employment but do not experience any productivity growth. …”
