We would like to thank Dr Steffen Schulz
(GIZ) for facilitating the funding and for his involvement during the whole exercise. We greatly appreciate Steffen’s
encouragement to the team, his enthusiasm and contribution to the sustainable improvement of soil health and
agricultural productivity by supporting research and development in Ethiopia. The project was also benefited
with partial support from Africa RISING (Africa Research in Sustainable Intensification for the Next Generation), a
program financed by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) as part of the United States
Government’s Feed the Future Initiative.
Thanks to the Ethiopian Institute of Agricultural Research (EIAR), especially Mr Gebreyes Gurum and Dr Tesfaye
Shimber, for contributing to the success of the project. We are equally grateful for the work of our colleagues from
EIAR and other institutions who reviewed the literature and presented their results at relatively short notice.
Finally, sincere thanks to all the participants who attended the two-day workshop (1–2 December 2016), contributed
to the presentations and made valuable comments and suggestions; and to Addisu Asfaw, for note taking during
the workshop.","More than 80% of the Ethiopian population is
dependent on agriculture, which contributes about
50% of the country’s gross domestic product (GDP)
and more than 80% of its export earnings. Although
the agricultural sector is the engine of economic
growth and the country has designed an “Agriculturalled
Industrialization”, the agricultural sector is still
characterized by severe soil erosion, high levels
of nutrient mining, low use of external inputs, low
productivity and limited capacity to respond to
environmental shocks. Thus, the country is grappling
with a daunting challenge: produce more food for a
fast-growing population on low fertility soils on land
owned by poor smallholder farmers who are unlikely
to afford adequate input use. To address these
challenges, several efforts are being made since the
1960s to assess the potential effects of various sources
of organic and mineral fertilizers on crop yield and soil
fertility status of the differing farming systems in the
country...","2017","published","Publication No. 443",,,,"CIAT","Addis Ababa, Ethiopia",,"86",,,,,,,"International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)",,,,,,,,,,,"","https://cgspace.cgiar.org/bitstream/handle/10568/82996/A_REVIEW_SOIL_FERTILITY_MANAGEMENT_AND_CROP_RESPONSE_FERTILIZER_APPLICATION_ETHIOPIA.pdf?sequence=5","https://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?q=A+review+of+soil+fertility+management+and+crop+response+to+fertilizer+application+in+Ethiopia%3A+Towards+development+of+site-+and+context-specific+fertilizer+recommendation&btnG=&hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5","pub",,"GIZ Soil Health Program of Ethiopia, Africa RISING and USAID","",,,,,,"",,,,,,,"",,,,,"",,,,,"","",,,,,"","",,,,,
