This chapter tries to evaluate whether land rental markets in Ethiopia allow households to attain their desired level of cultivated land irrespective of their endowment using the friction model developed by Rosett (1959) and Skoufias (1995).

In this paper, choice experiment was applied for valuation of Lake Tana’s fishery and watershed.
This paper investigates the effects of crop genetic diversity on farm productivity and production risk in the highlands of Ethiopia.
This study investigates the impact of climate change adaptation on farm households’ downside risk exposure (e.g., risk of crop failure) in the Nile Basin of Ethiopia. The analysis relies on a moment-based specification of the stochastic production function.
Dependency of urban Ethiopian households on rural areas for about 85 percent of their fuel needs is a significant cause of deforestation and forest degradation, resulting in growing fuel scarcity and higher firewood prices.
We investigate attitudes toward positionality among rural farmers in Northern Ethiopia using a survey experiment.
On average, we find very low positional concerns both for income per se and for income from aid projects. The results support the claim that positional concerns are positively correlated with absolute level of income. The implications of our results on implementation of aid projects are discussed.
This paper uses data from household- and plot-level surveys conducted in the highlands of the Tigray and Amhara regions of Ethiopia to examine the contribution of sustainable land-management practices to net values of agricultural production in areas with low- and high-agricultural potential.
