Improving agricultural productivity, agricultural commercialization and improving the livelihoods of the population are the main challenges in the Sub-Saharan Africa region where the majority of the population are poor and live in rural areas. Several factors including lack of improved farming practices, poor infrastructure, low level of market integration to the world market and within countries, climate change, and inadequate policy support restrained the performance of the agricultural sector in the region. This thesis consists of four chapters, three empirical and one theoretical chapter. Each of the empirical chapters deals with selected topics pertinent to the agriculture sector in Ethiopia. The theoretical chapter reviews the agricultural policies adopted by the existing government and implemented over the past two decades. After the introductory chapter, the second chapter analyzes the impacts of climate change on crop yields and yield vari-ability in Ethiopia. The impacts o...

The Ethiopian export sector has depended on few agricultural products like coffee (29.5%), oil seeds (14.9%), pulses (9.5%), Chat (9.3%), and cut flowers (8%). The total export earnings were declined over time. This, the aim of this term paper is to study the trend and impact of agricultural export on economic growth in Ethiopia. The study was analyzed through Engel granger co-integration test and causality test by employed secondary time series data from 1997-2018. The Engel granger co-integration test result showed that there is no long run relationship between agricultural export and economic growth. The Granger Causality test result revealed that there is no evidence of Granger causal relationship between agricultural export and economic growth implying neither export led growth nor growth driven agricultural export is valid in the context of Ethiopia. Therefore the government should make an effort to bring a structural change from export of primary agricultural goods to manufacturing goods.

Agricultural production in Ethiopia is characterized by subsistence orientation, low productivity, low level of technology and inputs, lack of infrastructures and market institutions, and extremely vulnerable to rainfall variability. Productivity performance in the agriculture sector is critical to improvement in overall economic well-being in Ethiopia. Low availability of improved or hybrid seed, lack of seed multiplication capacity, low profitability and efficiency of fertilizer, lack of irrigation development, lack of transport infrastructure, inaccessibility of market and prevalence of land degradation, unfertile soil, overgrazing, deforestation and desertification are among the constraints to agricultural productivity during last period. However, in 2011 the sector grew by 9% driven by cereal production which reached a record high of 19.10 million tons in Ethiopia.

The objective of this study was to examine the impact of agricultural export performance on economic growth of Ethiopia. The study employed both descriptive analysis and econometric technique. In particular, the study sets out to assess the trend of agricultural export and economic growth in Ethiopia using yearly time series data covering from 1989/90 to 2018/19 years. The dependent variable is the real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of the country. Explanatory variables namely agricultural export values (AEX), gross capital formation (GCF), gross labour force (GLF) real exchange rate (RER), and imports (IM) were regressed using the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model. Granger causality method was used to test the direction of causality between agricultural export and economic growth. The long run results obtained indicated that agricultural export has positive and significant effect on economic growth of Ethiopia. In the short run, agricultural export have no significant effect on economic growth. The granger causality shows uni-directional relationship between agricultural export and economic growth. The Recommendation from the results of the study was that to improve the productivity and quality of agricultural export commodities, the government should adopt modern machines and technology, provision of adequate inputs, availability of credit, improved marketing mechanism as well as maintain Agro based industries to export value added goods rather than raw material to increase foreign exchange earning of country.

Ethiopia’s agricultural sector has recorded remarkable rapid growth in the last decade. This note documents aspects of this growth process. Over the last decade, there have been significant increases – more than a doubling – in the use of modern inputs, such as chemical fertilizers and improved seeds, explaining part of that growth. However, there was also significant land expansion, increased labor use, and Total Factor Productivity (TFP) growth estimated at 2.3 percent per year. The expansion in modern input use appears to have been driven by high government expenditures on the agricultural sector, including agricultural extension, but also by an improved road network, higher rural education levels, and favorable international and local price incentives.

Explore NIAID Topics for Small Business Innovation Research Contract Solicitation

Funding News Edition: September 4, 2024 See more articles in this edition

Researcher measures volume of cell cultures for an experiment.

NIH's SBIR program accepts Phase I, Phase II, Fast Track, and Direct-to-Phase II research proposals.

Each year, NIH solicits research proposals from small businesses through A Solicitation of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Contract Proposals . The latest version was published on August 2, 2024. The solicitation serves as a vehicle for offerors to propose research projects on a multitude of scientific topics from across NIH.

Proposals are due by October 18, 2024, at 5 p.m. Eastern Time.  

NIH’s Small Business Education and Entrepreneurial Development (SEED) program will host an HHS SBIR Contract RFP Pre-proposal Conference Webinar (PHS-2025-1) to discuss the mechanics of the contract opportunity on September 23, 2024, from 2 to 4 p.m. Eastern Time. The presentation materials will be posted on that same event page following the session. 

Note : This SBIR contract solicitation is distinct from the 2024 SBIR and STTR Omnibus/Parent Grant Solicitations for the NIH, CDC, and FDA released in July, which are notices of funding opportunities for grant awards (despite the word “solicitation” appearing in their titles). Learn about those grant opportunities in our August 7, 2024 article “ Small Business Research: Priority Funding Topics for 2025 .” 

To differentiate among the proposal types: 

  • Phase I—research to determine the scientific or technical feasibility and commercial merit of the proposed research or research and development (R&D) efforts. 
  • Phase II—continuance of Phase I research efforts, dependent on successful Phase I results as well as scientific and technical merit and commercial potential of further work. 
  • Fast Track—simultaneous submission of Phase I and Phase II proposals, to facilitate a streamlined transition from Phase I to Phase II if merited by research outcomes. 
  • Direct-to-Phase II—allows a small business concern to commence with Phase II research if Phase I stage-type research funded through other, non-SBIR/STTR sources is already complete. 

The table below summarizes NIAID’s research topics of interest for contract proposals. Refer to the attachment posted within the solicitation linked above for full details, including the number of anticipated awards and descriptions of required activities and deliverables.
