Effects of stone terraces on crop yields and farm profitability: Results of on-farm research in Tigray, northern Ethiopia

Autor: Gebremedhin, Berhanu Swinton, S.M. Tilahun, Y.

This study was conducted in Tigray, northern Ethiopia to determine the yield and farm profitability impact of stone terraces. Seventy terraced and 70 non-conserved plots were equally divided between wheat (Triticum aestivum) and faba beans (Vicia faba). Two quadrates each 8 m (86 ft2) were marked...
