(Journal of Soil and Water Conservation; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2020)The traditional agriculture production system in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) caused significant soil erosion and degradation of soil quality. In addition, dependability of rainfall for irrigation needs limits the crop production. ...
-
(Water; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2022)Agriculture in Africa is adversely affected by the loss of soil fertility. Conservation agriculture (CA) was introduced to curb the loss of soil fertility and water shortages and improve crop productivity. However, information ...
-
(Agricultural Water Management; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2021)Livestock is an integral part of the agricultural system in sub-Saharan Africa, serving as a food source, income, fertilizer, and power for farming and transportation. However, the productivity of the livestock system has ...

-
(Land; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2019)Intensification of rainfed agriculture in the Ethiopian highlands has resulted in soil degradation and hardpan formation, which has reduced rooting depth, decreased deep percolation, and increased direct runoff and sediment ...

-
(Cogent Food & Agriculture; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2019)This review identified factors that determine the decision of a household to participate in irrigation, and its impact on the income of pastoralists and agro-pastoralists. In Ethiopia, agriculture is the basic economic ...
-
(Elsevier; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2019)Small-scale irrigation (SSI) technologies can be useful not only to increase crop productivity and income but also as a viable adaptation practice to climate variability. A farm simulation model (FARMSIM) and data from ...

(Computers and Electronics in Agriculture; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2019)Estimating the potential land resources suitable for irrigation and evaluating the possible impact of climate change on land suitability is essential for planning a sustainable agricultural system. This study applied a ...
-
(Agricultural Systems; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2020)Maize (Zea mays L.) is the essential staple in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) and Tanzania in particular; the crop accounts for over 30% of the food production, 20% of the agricultural gross domestic product (GDP) and over 75% ...
-
(Hydrological Sciences Journal; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2020)The actual accuracy of satellite rainfall products is often unknown due to the limitation of raingauge networks. We evaluated the effect of gauge representativeness error on evaluation of rainfall estimates from the CHIRPS ...
-
(Lecture Notes of the Institute for Computer Sciences, Social Informatics and Telecommunications Engineering; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2020)Endosulfan, a mixture of α- and β-isomers, is used by farmers in the wet and dry season for khat and onion production. Khat leaf samples were collected in farmer fields at intervals of 1 h; 1, 5, 9 and 14 d after application. ...

-
(Hydrological Processes,; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2020)Feeding 9 billion people in 2050 will require sustainable development of all water resources, both surface and subsurface. Yet, little is known about the irrigation potential of hillside shallow aquifers in many highland ...
-
(Ecosystem Services; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2018)Estimating the impacts of land use/land cover (LULC) changes in Ecosystem Service Values (ESV) is indispensable to provide public awareness about the status of ESV, and to help in policy-making processes. This study was ...
