Can Ethiopian Smallholder Farmers serve as basis for Green Revolution

Year: 2010

Type: article

Abstract: I would like first to thank Getachew Mequanent for his comments and views which make me reflect on some of my provocative terms. Getachew is of the opinion that green revolution is underway in Ethiopia. Despite acknowledged limitations, he interpreted the government effort as green revolution. According to him the government has “put in place” green revolution program with smallholder farmers at the heart of it. He mentioned “progresses made in the past 15 years to promote the green revolution technologies including fertilizers, herbicides, pesticides, improved crop varieties, irrigation and other complementary support systems.”
