Boswellia papyrifera (Del.) Hochst, a flagship tree species in the drylands of Ethiopia, is of high ecological, economic and social value. Recent work has shown that a wood-boring beetle is threatening its survival. In situ and ex situ studies were carried out to study the biology and damage asso...

Tackling land degradation and restoring degraded landscapes require information on areas of priority intervention, since it is not economically and technically possible to manage all areas affected. Recent developments in data availability and improved computational power have enhanced our unders...

Soil erosion is a very critical form of land degradation resulting in the loss of soil nutrients and downstream sedimentation of water storages in the highlands of Ethiopia. As it is technically and financially impossible to conserve all landscapes affected by erosion, identification of priority ...

In the northern highlands of Ethiopia, establishment of exclosures to restore degraded communal grazing lands has been practiced for the past three decades. However, empirical data on the effectiveness of exclosures in restoring degraded soils are lacking. We investigated the influence of exclosu...

Conservation agriculture (CA) is promoted extensively to increase the productivity and environmental sustainability of maize production systems across sub-Saharan Africa and is often listed as a climate-smart agriculture (CSA) practice. However, the impacts of CA on food security, resilience/adap...
