Accurate estimation of crop water requirements is crucial for better water-use efficiency and better planning of irrigation water resources. A crop water requirement is estimated using 'Kc ETo' approach. However, locally ...

Climate change affects crop productivity in most parts of the world, particularly in Sub-Saharan Africa. This challenge is expected as a major threat to crop production in central Ethiopia. The major purpose of the study ...

Population density is an important agronomic management practices in the production of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.). However, potato farmers in Ethiopia often use random population density, which contribute to the low ...

In Ethiopia, potato ranks first among the major tuber crop in the volume of production and consumption. However, the national average yield is 13.8 tons ha-1, which is very low, due to low soil fertility and poor fertilizer ...

Rice is one of the most important cereal crops in Fogera Plain. Despite its potential and production in Ethiopia, its productivity varies from year to year and over locations due to seasonal and intra-seasonal climate ...

The productivity of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is low due to the use of inappropriate inter and intra row spacing in the study area. Thus, a field experiment was conducted at Haramaya, in the main rainy season ...

Tef is the major crop grown in Ethiopia and the study area. However, its productivity is low mainly due to limited use of improved varieties and low soil fertility as result of intensive soil erosion and long history of ...

Low soil fertility and poor crop management practices are among the major constraints limiting the productivity of bread wheat in Ethiopia in general and Hulbareg District in particular. Therefore, a field experiment was ...

A field experiment was conducted in 2019 main cropping season at Kulumsa Agricultural Research Center research station, Southeastern Ethiopia with the objectives of assessing the compatibility of faba bean and wheat ...

A field experiment was conducted inBabile District during the main cropping season of 2019 to evaluate the effect of plant spacing (inter- and intra-row spacing) on yield and yield related traits of sorghum (Sorghum ...
