• Adaptation /Demonstration Trails Soy bean Adaptation trail – Varietal trail & farming

system ( Mother and Baby) Adaptation trail of chickpea varieties in vertisol of

Dale and Boricha Soil Fertility Management – ISFM and Acid soil

Treatment

• Pre scaling of Major food crops Haricot bean ,Tef , Wheat, Malt Barely, Food

barely ,Maize

SOY BEAN VARIETAL TRAIL IN DALE, BORICHA & HAWASSA ZURIAIntroduction

Soya bean( Glycine max ) is a leguminous crop Soil building' crops - N FixationNutritionally rich crop (40 to 42%

protein) It is cheap and rich source of protein for poor farmers, who have less access to animal protein, b/se of their low purchasing capacity.

good Markets for grain & processed product

Introduction ….• The choice of variety is a key factor. Maturity,

lodging, and disease resistance, must be considered when selecting varieties to complement a production area.

• Objectives 1. To identify best performing varieties for the technology villages 2. To teach farmers on production of soy bean

Soy bean at maturity

Materials and method

• A three replicate at each site with 'n' treatments (variety)

- three replicated per one FTC - Plot size (per treatment) 3 x 4 m. - RCBD design block= Replicate)

Site selection ,input use and observation

• Trial should be laid out on good soil that’s homogenous

• Use and Application of inputs Varieties -released variety Fertilizer rates & application - 100 kg DAP per

hectare at 10 cm away from the planting line, in a 2-cm deep

• Observations - Measurements: Yield (biomass and grain yield,)

Adaptability of Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) in Vertisols soil of Dale and Boricha

• Chickpeas are the world’s second-largest cultivated

food legume and developing countries account for

over 95 percent of its production and

consumption.

• a dry-season legume that grows well on the

residual moisture , not compete for area with

other major legumes

Adaptability of Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) in …..

• Labor was get rest for those months unless

carrying few livestock .

• In other hand the villages are suitable for chickpea

production according to the range of adaptability

and few farmers had been cultivated . Therefore,

solving food insecurity problem by using of rest

labor and land in bega season become important

objectives

1. To identify the best fit varieties for Boricha and Dale woredas

2. To Evaluate Socioeconomic and Biophysical adaptability of chick pea

Materials and methodA three replicate at each site with 'n'

treatments(varietyPlot size (per treatment) 3 x 4 m.

RCBD Lay out similar with soy bean

Site selection, use and application of input and observations

• Site selection:• The trial should be laid out on good soil that’s

homogenous• Use and Application of inputs

Varieties -released variety Fertilizer rates & application - 100 kg DAP per hectare at 10

cm away from the planting line, in a 2-cm deep Innoculant - CP41 strain

• Observations - Measurements: Yield (biomass and grain yield,)

SOIL FERTILITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT• This project includes two sub project activities 1. Soil Fertility alternatives in Boricha and Dale 2. Acid soil Treatment in Hula

Soil Fertility ImprovementBackground and Justification

• Soil is the most basic requirement to grow crops, so

it comes as unhealthy, depleted soil leads to low

crop yields.

• Multiple interventions are needed to address these

soil fertility issues including, but not limited to,

chemical and organic nutrient sources.

• scaling-up of chemical fertilizer use

Potential soil fertility interventions

• Organic nutrient sources

• Chemical fertilizer:

• Bio-fertilizer:

• Intercropping, crop rotation and fallowing:

• Lime:

• Physical land management techniques,

erosion and moisture management:

The effect of soil Fertilizer application practices in productivity of potato at Boricha and Hawassa Zuria woreda

• objectives1. To demonstrate the responses of potato to soil

amendment and their combination. 2. To evaluate the economical importance of

using different soil amendments• Site Selection variability faced in smallholder farmers’ fields • Boricha and Hawassa -3 kebele per woreda and

3 farmers in each kebele lay on FTC/FF

Treatments• A single replicate at each site with six

treatments, all using the same improved variety

Experimental design, treatment structure and number of replicates

• There will be a total of six replicated fields. Plot size (per treatment) 5 x 5 m. Together this comprises a randomized complete block design, with a single replicate per block (i.e. block=replicate).

• Observations • Measurements: Yield (biomass and grain yield),

plant tissue analysis

Pre-scaling up of best fit crop verities in the technology villages

• For all crops, the strategies we are used in similarly way to scale up program

• A) Haricot Bean woreda - Boricha, Hawassa Zuria

• B) Tef Dale and Boricha

• C) Wheat woreda - Hula, Wondo Genet

Pre scaling up ….. D) Malt Barely

woreda - Hula, Wondo Genet E) Food barely

woreda - Hula, Wondo Genet

• In each of activities 15 ha. Land and 60 farmers planed• Land size - 0.25 hectare from each farmers 2.5 hectare in kebele

,7.5 hectare in three kebele and 15 hectare in two woreda• Design- half of the land will be used as farmers current practice

and half best technologies

perceived as new2. የግንኙነት መስመር (Communication channel)- from one to

የንግግር ክህሎት (COMMUNICATION SKILL)• ተመሳሳይ መልዕክት መሆን Communication is the

process of sending and receiving messages through channels which establishes common meanings between a sender and a receiver.

• ለሌሎች መልዕክት በቂ ሁኔታ ማድርስ As a worker you work which can through other people. if you work on a machine your ability to express yourself will be of little importance. your effectiveness depends on your ability to reach others through the spoken or the written word.

የኮሙኒከሽን አይነቶች Modes of communication

• በምልክት፤በቃል፤ ቃል ባልሆነ መንገድ(Symbolically, verbally and non verbally)

1. ምልክት (Symbolic communication) የልብስ ምርጫ (choice of cloths) የገጣገጥ ምርጫ (Jewelry) የቅባት የዉበት ሥራዎች (Cosmetics or makeup)2. የሰዉነት ቐንቐ (Body language) Facial chrs x- good bye-eye contact - smile Body gestures the nodding, the swaying body3. በንግግር (Verbally)

መረጃ ለመለዋወጥ የምያሰችል መረብ ነዉ፡፡

• Is consists of interconnected individuals who are

linked by patterned flows of information.

• ቁርኝት ያለዉ ትስስር -Interlocking personal network-

who interact with each other

• ቁርኝት የለለዉ ትስስር- Radial personal networks- who

do not interact with each other

ማን ከማን ጋር ቁርኝት ይፈጥራል ? whom in networks?

• Network play a very crucial role in innovation diffusion.

• በቅርቡ ያለ ተመሳሳይ ጉዳይ ያላቸዉ -who are close to them in

physical distance and who are relatively homophiles in social

characteristics. The least effort need and that are most

rewarding. የዝህ ቁርኝት ድክመቱ- limited value for obtaining

information ( በቂ መራጃ ስርጭት አይኖርም)

• በቅርበት የለሉና የተለያየ ማህበራዊ ኑሮ የምኖሩ-Hetrophils links

with socially and spatially distant areas are usually stronger

in carrying useful information to individuals.
