Genotype by Environment Interaction and Grain Yield Stability Analysis for Bread Wheat (Triticum Aestivum L.) Genotypes in Southern Ethiopia
Abstract: The productivity of bread wheat varieties affected by many factors including the agro-ecology of the growing area. It is important to test the adaptability and yields of released varieties in multi-location for their productivity. This study was designed to evaluate the yield potential and stability of bread wheat varieties across locations. A total of fourteen recently released bread wheat varieties were evaluated during 2019 and 2020 main cropping seasons at …

Time of Lime Application on Performance of Food Barely in Acidic Soil, Gummer District, Southern Highland Ethiopia
Abstract: Soil acidity is the main bottleneck to crop production, causing reduced yields in highlands areas with heavy rainfall. Lime application is the most common method of restoring soil acidity and can increase soil pH, improve nutrient availability for plants, and alter physical, chemical, and biological properties of soils. However, the lime application time varies greatly along the boundary and deviates from the time recommended by different researchers. The experiment was …

Determinants of Forage and Forage Seed Production in Silte and Gurage Zones and, Yem Special Woreda, SNNPR, Ethiopia
Abstract: Poor feed and nutrition are major constraints of livestock production in sub-Saharan Africa. Crop residues are becoming the major livestock feed resources in Ethiopia. Crop residues are nutritionally characterized as containing a high proportion of cell wall and deficient in energy, protein and micronutrients. The country has developed several feed production and utilization technologies. However, production of these technologies has so far been under expected. So, identification of the major …
