Abstract

This thesis would have been impossible without the help of many individuals and organizations. First and foremost, I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to my advisor, Dr. Workeneh Negatu, for his valuable comments and constructive advice. I wish to thank my father, Bekele Baye, and my mother, Birkenesh Wodajo, for their all rounded support during my career. I am indebted to enumerators who assisted me during the field work. Particularly Sintayhu Negash who is DA in the Woreda and has close link with rural farmers, helped me not only as an enumerator but also assisted me by disclosing important information and data throughout my field stay. My thanks also go to Asefa Edo and Ketema Abebe, who are Experts in Wenago Woreda Agricultural and Rural Development Office, for their cooperation and support during my stay in the field. I also extend my thanks to CDS Staff particularly Tsega, Marta and Sirgut for their full cooperation during my two years of academic stay. Last but not least, I wish to thank my brother Anteneh Bekele and my friends Wondowoson Mengistu, Girma Zewde, Asseged Teshome and Abichu Lema for their valuable moral and material supports.
