20.500.12556/DKUM-70129 State of soil conservation practices in Silti Woreda, southern Ethiopia Soil erosion is the major problem of Ethiopian highland areas where an average soil loss of 42tons/ha/year, with rate soil depth loss of more than 2 cm/year, corresponding to 1 to 2 billion US$/year (an amount comparable to the country’s annual budget). The higher soil loss has been estimated at Southern Ethiopia where densely settled on highlands. A vast majority of the population derives its livelihood from forest, livestock herding and agriculture. The economic conditions force the rural poor to exploit the environment for their survival. Keeping the importance, the work was conducted in Silti Woreda, Southern Ethiopia, with the objectives; to identify the current status and trend of soil conservation practices, to assess the socio-cultural, economic, biophysical and institutional/policy/support system constraints for the implementation and maintenance of conservation practices. The study reveals, indigenous soil conservation technologies are considered as effective methods of conservation. But, population poverty and unawareness are major constraints. soil conservation agriculture backwardness indigenous method topography Etiopija hribovska območja kmetijstvo prst (pedologija) erozija zaščita true true true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Oddelek za geografijo, Filozofska fakulteta Univerze v Mariboru Znanstveno delo 2018-04-10 08:50:38 2018-04-10 08:51:23 2022-08-01 18:50:28 2019-11-19 03:13:35 2012 0 0 str. 131-158 št. 1 Letn. 7 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 1854-665X 631.459(630)(23.0) 229718016 267971840 1854-665X URN:SI:UM:DK:TYTU0OBC Revija_za_geografijo_2012_Ali,_Surur_State_of_soil_conservation_practices_in_Silti_Woreda,_southern_Ethiopia.pdf Revija_za_geografijo_2012_Ali,_Surur_State_of_soil_conservation_practices_in_Silti_Woreda,_southern_Ethiopia.pdf 1 DA051A00C16AA135B5C17B7AC5EA7651 050a7d6346cc51c3454f7a94f47e9e38598ff4c401d9c0c049cc0ed854be9ecc dee8ab6c-7c0f-11eb-bb7a-00155d0001ca 20.500.12556/dkum/df27c316-c96c-4caa-8eb5-b52e429021d4 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=123735 http://www.ff.um.si/zalozba-in-knjigarna/ponudba/zbirke-in-revije/revija-za-geografijo/clanki/stevilka-7-1-2012/071-12_ali_surur.pdf 1 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=123736 Filozofska fakulteta Revija za geografijo 0 0 0
