Groundwater quality in an upland agricultural watershed in the sub-humid Ethiopian Highlands

Autor: Akal, Adugnaw T. Dagnew, D.C. Giri, S. Belete, M.A. Tilahun, Seifu A. Mekuria, Wolde M. Steenhuis, Tammo S.

Agricultural intensification to meet the food needs of the rapidly growing population in developing countries is negatively affecting the water quality. In most of these countries such as Ethiopia, information on surface and especially groundwater quality is lacking. This limits the measure that ...

Deep tillage improves degraded soils in the (sub) humid Ethiopian highlands

Autor: Hussein, Misbah A. Muche, Habtamu Schmitter, Petra Nakawuka, Prossie Tilahun, Seifu A. Langan, Simon Barron, Jennie Steenhuis, Tammo S.

Intensification of rainfed agriculture in the Ethiopian highlands has resulted in soil degradation and hardpan formation, which has reduced rooting depth, decreased deep percolation, and increased direct runoff and sediment transport. The main objective of this study was to assess the potential i...

Conservation agriculture saves irrigation water in the dry monsoon phase in the Ethiopian highlands

Autor: Belay, Sisay A. Schmitter, Petra Worqlul, A.W. Steenhuis, Tammo S. Reyes, Manuel R. Tilahun, Seifu A.

Water resources in sub-Saharan Africa are more overstressed than in many other regions of the world. Experiments on commercial farms have shown that conservation agriculture (CA) can save water and improve the soil. Nevertheless, its benefits on smallholder irrigated farms have not been adequatel...

Gully head retreat in the sub-humid Ethiopian Highlands: the Ene-Chilala Catchment

Autor: Addisie, Meseret B. Ayele, Getaneh K. Gessess, A.A. Tilahun, Seifu A. Zegeye, Assefa D. Moges, M.M. Schmitter, Petra Langendoen, E.J. Steenhuis, Tammo S.

In the northern highlands of Ethiopia, gully erosion is severe. Despite many efforts to implement gully prevention measures, controlling gully erosion remains a challenge. The objective is to better understand the regional gully erosion processes and to prevent gully head retreat. The study was c...

Rehabilitation of large valley bottom gullies in developing countries is hampered by high cost. Stopping head cuts at the time of initiation will prevent large gullies from forming and is affordable. However, research on practices to control shallow gully heads with local materials is limited. Th...
