Abstract
This chapter deals with the agricultural census data that indicates the type of inputs applied, quantity of inputs applied, the irrigated cropland area, estimates of cropland area damage, number of holders who applied different agricultural inputs and farm management practices, and number of holders covered by extension package programs in Somali region. However, the census covers only Shinele and Erer Weredas from Shinele Zone, Jijiga, TeferiBer and Kebri Beyah weredas from Jijga Zone and Filtu, Dolo Odo and Moyale weredas from Liben Zone. Thus, for these areas of the region data are presented for private holdings in rural areas for both Meher and Belg seasons, and urban areas of holdings for Meher season. For urban areas, data are collected and presented only to the inputs applied and the irrigated cropland area and number of holders who applied farm inputs. Moreover, this chapter presents statistical tables 6.1 - 6.56 that show the results of the census at zonal and wereda levels. In the Annex to this chapter are also given tables showing estimates, standard errors (S.E) and coefficient of variation (C.V), i.e. in Tables 6.1 and 6.2 for some relevant variables.
