Abstract:
Rice is a critical staple crop in Ethiopia, playing a key role in ensuring food security. However, rice production in the country faces significant challenges, including low seed quality and yield. The application of silicon-rich rice husk biochar has emerged as a promising approach to address these constraints and improve the sustainability of rice seed production systems. This comprehensive review synthesizes the current state of knowledge on the use of rice husk biochar as a source of plant-available silicon to enhance rice seed quality, yield, and stress tolerance in Ethiopian agroecosyste

In the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia, however, the disease has never been reported in rice fields. In September 2012, plants with leaf yellowing and mottling symptoms were observed near Bahir Dar and in the Fogera district in the northwestern part of the country during a joint survey of scientists from Madagascar (FOFIFA), Ethiopian Institut

AbstractIn this book, Ethiopia is used as a case study to understand the role that the agricultural sector can play in economic growth in a low-income country. Ethiopia is not intended to be interpreted either as a representative or as a unique case for the broader sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) experience, but the book instead intends to shed light on Ethiopia’s particular development experience. To contextualize the findings of the research, this chapter therefore discusses some key elements of Ethiopia’s rich economic, political, and agricultural history.

However, it takes 6 to 8 weeks after the rains start to produce enough vines for planting material, and normally these vines are infected by sweetpotato diseases and pests carried over from previous crops.

This has created an opportunity for rice farmers to hire labour when they need for extra help, and also for unskilled labourers to gain casual employment.

Abstract:
Since the early 1980s, the Fogera Plain has been one of Ethiopia's major rice production areas. The introduction of rice, its commercialisation and the subsequent increased surplus production has led to the ability of smallholder rice farmers to intensify their production through diverse investments, mainly in supplementary irrigation. This has also enabled rice farmers to diversify crop production, mainly during the off-season, through the production of high-value crops like vegetables. Despite this expansion, a recent visit to the Fogera Plain by the authors revealed that most smallholder ri
