    DETERMINANTS OF FERTILIZER USE OF CROP PRODUCTION ON SMALL HOUSEHOOLD FARMER (IN CASE OF HIDEBU ABOOTE WOREDA)
    (wolkite universty, 2019-09) AYELE YAZEW
    The aim of this study is to examine the determinant of fertilizer use on crop production by small holder farmers in case of hidabu abote woreda. Data for this study collected from primary data in 2010 cropping season. A simple random sampling is applied to select 88 samples which include both adopter and non-adopter in the selected kebeles. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were used to describe socio economic and institutional characteristics of the respondent through percentage in both fertilizers adopted and non- fertilizer adopted farmers. OLS model was employed to identify determinant of fertilizer application on crop production was regressed against eight explanatory variables so as to identify the determinant fertilizers application on crop production by small holder farmers. Regression result revealed that six explanatory variable such as credit access and safety net positively influenced and statistically insignificant variables. Whereas six variables I.e. family size, education level, farm size, number of oxen , number of livestock and extension service are statistically significant at 1, 5and 10percent. Therefore the study suggest that improve credit access and safety net program, giving attence are some of the important priority area for the success of future intervention strategies aimed at the promotion of increasing production for sustainable development in agricultural se
