Peden, Donald G.Amede, TilahunAwulachew, Seleshi BekeleFaki, H.Mpairwe, D.R.Haileslassie, AmareBreugel, P. van[Livestock development for better water use in the Nile Basin]Livestock development for better water use in the Nile Basin

Crop-livestock systems are very important both in terms of area and contribution to people’s livelihoods in the Ethiopian highlands. However, a common problem in these systems is low livestock and crop productivity, which is partly caused by water scarcity and environmental degradation. As water ...


Descheemaeker, KatrienHaileslassie, AmareAmede, TilahunBossio, Deborah A.Tarawali, Shirley A.[Assessment of water productivity and entry points for improvement in mixed crop-livestock systems of the Ethiopian highlands]Assessment of water productivity and entry points for improvement in mixed crop-livestock systems of the Ethiopian highlands

Small-scale irrigation is playing an important role in adapting to climate change, achieving food security, and improving household incomes. The Ethiopian Government considers irrigated agriculture as a primary engine of economic growth and plans to increase the current level of irrigation infras...


Amede, Tilahun[Technical and institutional attributes constraining the performance of small-scale irrigation in Ethiopia.]Technical and institutional attributes constraining the performance of small-scale irrigation in Ethiopia.

Low crop and livestock productivities in the mixed farming systems of Ethiopia hamper efforts to meet the increasing food demands from a stressed natural resource base. Important reasons for the low agricultural productivity are water scarcity and poor spatial and temporal rainfall distribution. ...


Descheemaeker, KatrienAmede, TilahunHaileslassie, AmareBossio, Deborah A.[Analysis of gaps and possible interventions for improving water productivity in crop livestock systems of Ethiopia]Analysis of gaps and possible interventions for improving water productivity in crop livestock systems of Ethiopia

Projections suggest that annual per capita water availability in the Indo-Ganga Basin (IGB) will reduce to a level typical for water-stressed areas. Producing more crop and livestock products, per unit of agricultural water invested, is advocated as a key strategy for future food production and e...

The threat of water scarcity in sub-Saharan Africa is real, due to the expanding agricultural needs, climate variability and inappropriate land use. Livestock keeping is the fastest growing agricultural sector, partly because of increasing and changing demands for adequate, quality and diverse fo...
