Tree survival does not always depend on soil water conservation-what and where matters: Lessons from East Shewa Ethiopia

Efforts to scale up agroforestry in the arid and semi-arid areas of Ethiopia are constrained by the high rate of tree mortality. These areas have low tree cover despite concerted efforts of tree planting by both government and non-governmental institutions. With the ultimate goal of promoting agroforestry, this study aimed at assessing the effectiveness of micro catchments in enhancing tree survival and understanding farmers’ perceptions of other factors that influence survival of trees.
