dc.description.abstractAddressing the issue of rural poverty in agro-pastoral areas of Nuer should be at the heart of any development strategy for Gambella region. The main objectives are: ( I) to measure the level of poverty, (2) to single out major determinants of poverty in an agro-pastoralists areas and (3) to point out some possible measures that need to be taken in order to alleviate poverty in the areas. The empirical findings also show that land size, total livestock owned ( TLU), income ratio ( IRA TO), sex, number of women married to a man, hunting and fishing practices significantly explain household poverty. The major policy recommendations in alleviating poverty in rural jiokow are to improve the quality of land through micro-irrigation schemes and promote management of conflict related to land issues, upgrade the productivity of local cows through crossbreeding schemes and veterinary compaign, and making a policy for gender equality by increasing the economic value of women's work through skill training for productive, profitable employment and through increased women's access to credit and technology.en_US
