Abstract

The study was conducted at Fedis and Babile districts which are major food insecure districts found in East Hararghe Zone that due to shortage and unevenly distribution of rainfall pattern in the area to demonstrate and create awareness on improved ground nut technology. Introducing drought tolerate crops are an option to reduce food insecurity problems. Three groundnut varieties namely Shulamiz, Bable-2 and local check were demonstrated with its full packages on 10*10m² on ten trial farmers field at Fadis and Babile districts for two consecutive years (2019-2020). Two FRGs having 30 farmers were established at both kebele. The average yield performances of the shulamiz, Babile-2 and local were 12.02, 12.02 and 7.6 quintals/ha at Bishan Bahe and 11.68, 10.44 and 7.6quintal/ha at Ballina Arba respectively. The net benefit that were obtained from Shulamiz, Babile-2 and local were 29,892, 24,312, 11,892 ETB at balina araba and 31, 422, 31,422, 11,532ETB at bishan babile respectively. Accordingly, the yield advantage of Shulamiz and Babile-2 variety over the local check were 55.1% and 46.98% over local check. While farmers’ don’t select local check because of its low yield. Finally it is better to promote Shulamiz varieties more fully on the larger scales for scale up.
