Factors controlling the morphology and volume (V)–length (L) relations of permanent gullies in the Northern Ethiopian Highlands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Small-scale aerial photographs and high-resolution satellite images, available for Ethiopia since the second half of the twentieth century as for most countries, allow only the length of gullies to be determined.

Potassium fertilization enhances teff [Eragrostis tef (Zuccagni) Trotter] productivity across contrasting soils in Omo‐Nada, southwestern Ethiopia

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Potassium (K) is an essential macronutrient vital for plant growth and crop production. However, the misconception that K fertilization is unnecessary has long persisted in Ethiopia. Hence, a field experiment was conducted during the 2021 and 2022 cropping seasons on Nitisol and Cambisol soils to evaluate the response of teff [Eragrostis tef ...

Participatory selection and performance of improved teff [Eragrostis tef (Zuccagni) Trotter] varieties in East Gojjam, Ethiopia

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Participatory variety selection (PVS) offers a practical alternative to researcher‐led breeding by directly involving farmers in evaluating and selecting crop varieties that meet their production needs and local conditions. This study assessed the agronomic performance and farmer preferences for eight released teff varieties and one standard ...

Optimum potassium fertilization level for growth, yield and nutrient uptake of wheat (Triticum aestivum) in Vertisols of Northern Ethiopia

open access: yesCogent Food & Agriculture, 2017
Potassium fertilization was started in 2014 using K containing blended fertilizers in Ethiopia. However, there was no evidence whether the recommended rates of K in the blended formula (which is between 7 and 12 kg/ha in the form of K2O) meets the crop ...
