Impact of Akaki Small-scale Irrigation Scheme on Ho/hold Food Security.

      Аннотация: Based on the study findings and conclusions made, actionable recommendations on correlates of food security, determinants and food security impact of small scale irrigation scheme are suggested. As researcher what I need to give some suggestions here is that the woreda administration and farming households should work hand in hand to curve problems faced on. Government should open schools (farmers field school) to increase production or skill around the study area. Magnitude of gender (sex) estimate on food security is absolutely high. Therefore head of farming households should be male for irrigation activities. Not only that even the concerning bodies particularly Institute of Sustainable Development(ISD) and others let the farming households to share experience from outsiders. Collective action among governments, NGOs and farming households on flood control and market linkage (perfect information on price of their product) should be taken to let farming households harvest two times per year and prosper.
