Experience from Traditional Irrigation Management in Ethiopia. Case Study of Holetta River



Authorized by Getamesay Shiwenzu



The main objective of the study was to assess experience of Holetta River to traditional irrigation users. In the study both qualitative and quantitative research approaches were used. By Purposive and convenient sampling methods open ended questionnaire and unstructured interview were employed along with direct observation. The management of the river very challengeable. Access to water doesn’t account for the type of crop and its stage, land hold and distant from the primary channel. Also, farmers make unlawful acts coupled with inefficient application of community the correct the problems. On the other hand, the participation of the community on the efficient management of the river is not effective. Therefore, improving the management of the irrigation is important by involving all concerning bodies. In the future it is imperative to made capacity building effort to enable the community to manage the irrigation system sustainably. Also, policy alternatives have to be tested to insight options for successful community-based irrigation system in the country.

Growth Response of Heterobranchus Longifilis Fingerlings Fed Diets Supplemented with Moringa Oleifera Leaf Meal as Replacement of Soybean Meal Authored by Ibiyo Lenient MO Aquaculture is the fastest growing sector of the world‘s animal production with an annual increase of about 10% [1]. To sustain such high rates of increase in production, a matching increase in fish feed production is imperative. Because fish meal is a limited primary source and plants are widely available and reasonably priced, the use of plant protein sources in aqua feeds should be considered [2]. Therefore, in order to attain more economically sustainable, environmentally friendly and viable production, research interest has been directed towards the evaluation and use of non-conventional sources of plant and animal protein. Soybean meal is one of the most nutritious of all plant protein sources because of its high protein content, high digestibility, and relatively well-balanced ami no acid profile [3]. Owing t...
