Amylase has been one of the most widely used enzymes in industries for decades. Its mainfunction is to hydrolyze the starch molecule into glucose unit. Among different types of amylases,α-amylase is in high demand to due its wide spread use in food, textile, baking and detergent industries. It can be acquired from microorganisms, plants and animals. The present study was conducted with the aim to isolate, identify and characterize amylase-producing bacteria from soil and waste water. The soil and waste water effluent samples were collected from the different places in the Zebidar beer factory, Gubrye town. Serial dilution of the samples from 10-3to 10-6were prepared and amylase producing bacteria were isolated from soil and waste water samples. Samples were cultured on a nutrient agar and Sub-culturing of clear colonies was made on Starch Plate Agar. The bacterias producing highest clear zone were identified and further used for amylase production and biochemical characterization. The screening of amylase producing bacteria was carried out by starch hydrolysis test on starch agar plates. Total of for thiolates were obtained by primary screening technique from which thirty isolates showed amylolytic activity. All isolates were found to be positive for gram reaction, catalase test, TSItest, VP test. However, they were found to be positive and negative for Simmon’s cit rate test and MR-test

(WOLKITE UNIVERSITY, 2025-08) Chernet Asfaw
Dif erent SWC works have been done in many parts of Ethiopia .but, the farmers' perception of soil erosion and their responses to soil and water conservation practices need investigation. Often contact between planners and stakeholders used to be minimal. The failure of conservation programs partly emerges from the fact that planners and implementing agencies ignore or fail to consider the socio-economic factors as critical determinants of the success or failureof conservation programs. Therefore, this study's objective was to identify what factors af ect theadoption of physical soil and water conservation practices and examine farmers' perceptions of soil and water conservation practices. . This study indicated that farmers' adoption of theSoil and Water Conservation decision was influenced more by socio-demographic, economic, institutional, and physical factors. The household head age, education levels, family size, and dependency ratio influenced socio-demographic factors; economic factors influenced farm sizeand household income. The slope category of the farm was of physical factor that influence dtheadoption of soil water conservation practices. Of these significantly influenced variables, the dependency ratio was negatively af ected, while the rest of the factors positively influenc edtheadoption of SWC practices. Based on the obtained result, the following recommendations were made: There should be a clear understanding of the socio-economic conditions of agivenlocality to undertake SWC activity; a closer relationship will need to be developed between land-use planners and soil conservationists; strengthening resettlement in unused areas; the wayof farming culture has to be investigated before planning to undertake conservation activity of agiven community; To implement SWC, exploring existing local resource and availabilityof farmland is vital because most farmers who have stones availability in their locality werereplayed that they choose stone bunds to protect their farm.

AGRICULTURAL ECONOMICS FACTORS AFFECTING FARMERS’ ADOPTION OF IMPROVED WHEAT
(WOLKITE UNIVERSITY, 2025-08) SIRAJKEMAL
This study investigates the factors influencing farmers' adoption of improved wheat varieties in the Silti District of the Silte Zone, Central Ethiopia. Wheat is a crucial staple crop in the region, yet the adoption rate of improved varieties remains suboptimal, hindering agricultural productivity and food security. Utilizing a mixed-methods approach, this research combines quantitative surveys with qualitative interviews to identify key determinants affecting adoption decisions. The study examines socioeconomic factors, access to information and resources, perceptions of improved varieties, and institutional support as critical variables influencing adoption behavior. Findings reveal that education level, access to agricultural extension services, availability of credit facilities, and participation in farmer groups significantly correlate with the likelihood of adopting improved wheat varieties. Additionally, perceived benefits such as increased yield and resistance to pests and diseases are pivotal in shaping farmers' attitudes towards these innovations. However, challenges such as high seed costs, inadequate market access, and climate variability pose significant barriers to adoption. This research contributes to understanding the dynamics of agricultural innovation in Ethiopia and provides actionable recommendations for policymakers and development practitioners to enhance the adoption of improved wheat varieties, ultimately aiming to improve food security and livelihoods in the region

(WOLKITE UNIVERSITY, 2023-02) DANO JIRATA, DANO
Ethiopian laws. Environmental crime was very serious challenge for development and sustainability of fauna and flora generally in the world arena and in Ethiopia. Environmental crimes can be broadly defined as illegal acts which directly harm the environment. It contributes to environmental degradation, which in turn affects the quality and quantity of environmental resources. As such, environmental crime impacts on human livelihoods.The major objective of the study to examine whether the legal framework of environmental law and institutions are implemented in Ethiopia, to this end both doctrinal and qualitative research approach was employed. The international conventions important in providing remedies for environmental pollutions are also part of Ethiopian laws through Article 9 (4) of the FDRE Constitution. Remedies for environmental crime like, criminal remedies, civil remedies and administrative remedies are concerned. In line with the FDRE Constitution, environmental protection authority has also issued an important regulation aimed at protecting the environment and providing appropriate remedies for environmental crimes committed in Ethiopia. The ministry Environmental forest and climate change, Police Office and the others are the main authorities entrusted with the responsibility to protect environmental protection and apply appropriate remedies against perpetrators of environmental crimes. One of the preventive mechanisms of environmental crimes is giving advance knowledge of the existence of the laws that prohibit a certain act to the public. The problem is done through the accessibility of the laws is become less when laws are scattered. And those problems primarily affect the environment and endanger the wellbeing of the community. In this regarding environmental crime and the implementation of legal remedy in the Ethiopia revealed that, despite the existence of governmental and non governmental agencies, little concern has been made to the environment and it lacks creation of public awareness. Despite the ratification of international treaties, enacted of national laws and regulations there is negligence from the concerning environmental protection authority body in Ethiopia.Finally based on the finding of the research the following recommendations are forwarded. The law which complied the all environmental crime in single document should be enacted to serve the purpose of fair warning as the people easily understand the environmental crime. Independent environmental organ which implement environmental crime should to be established.

(Wolkite University, 2023-05) ABDATA ZELEK,; ADESSE SOLOMON,; KIFLE LAJORE,
Agriculture is the backbone of the Ethiopian economy because it constitutes almost half of the GDP and more than 85 % of the population still depends on it for their livelihood. As a result, the government has given attention to the development of agriculture. The key challenge here is how to increase the productivity of smallholder farmers so that they would increasingly benefit from the small plot of land, and surplus labor could increasingly move to industrial sector. Thus, this study was aimed to measure the level of technical efficiency and identify the factors that influence the efficiency levels of sorghum in Hidabu Abote district during the production year of 2021. A three stage sampling technique was employed to select 95 sorghum growing sample households. Primary and secondary data was collected through interview schedule from the sampled households and reviewing secondary sources, respectively descriptive statistics, and stochastic production functions were employed to analyze the collected data. The Stochastic Production Frontier (SPF) result revealed that seed, labor, oxen power and fertilizer were found to be significantly influencing sorghum production at 5%, 5%, 1%, and 5% significance level, respectively. The coefficient of the Cobb-Douglas production function interpreted as elasticity and summing the individual elasticity, yields a scale elasticity of 1.014% this indicated that farmers’ scale of production belongsto increasing returns to scale. The result of the study further showed that household size, extension service, education, livestock holding, slope and offfarm activity contributed significantly and positively to TE. There should be timely supply of fertilizer and quality improved seed to improve farmer’s efficiency in production of sorghum

Covid-19 is the viral disease caused by a new coronavirus which was first reported on December 31, 2019 in the Wuhan province of china. It belongs to a large family of respiratory viruses called Coronaviridae and affect both human and animal. It is known to cause severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS-CoV-2) and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS-CoV) and now globally famous novel coronavirus sever acute respiratory syndrome (SARS-CoV-2). The SARS-CoV-2 genome is positive single-stranded RNA (+ssRNA) and have length of 30kbp. There are four genera of coronavirus (alpha, beta, gamma and delta). Among these the novel coronavirus severs acute respiratory syndrome (SARS-CoV-2) belongs to betacoronavirus. In this review, we have focused on the current standard diagnostic approach such as RT-PCR, Immunological technique, CRISPR/Cas, LAMP technique and CT scan. we are also focused on the application of biotechnology for rapid and cost effective diagnostic tools and possible vaccine approach such as protein subunit, inactivated vaccine, vector vaccine and anti- viral drug (Novavax, AstraZeneca, Pfizer, Moderna and Sinopharm), which are currently in use for covid-19 to reduce the spread of the disease. Still the above diagnostic technique has some limitations regarding a lack of strength and lengthy procedures difficult in controlling this outbreak of covid-19. Due to this early detection and isolation of suspected patients can play an essential role in controlling this outbreak.

(wolkite universty, 2024-09) Akalu Shanka; Mahider Temesgen; Habitamu Bitew
Radiation refers to the energy or particles from a source that travels through space or other mediums. For instance, light, heat, microwaves, and wireless communications all are its forms. So, through this article, we will be able to help you understand this in detail. We often categorize it into two types that depend on the energy of the radiated particles. The first is ionizing radiation. After that, we have non-ionizing Radiation, which comprises alpha particles, beta particles, and gamma particles. Between the research of this document, the committee has highlighted some of the ways that nuclear physics impacts our lives along with some of the individuals poised for leadership in nuclear physics. In this project, we provide a more detailed. Overview of some of the ways in which nuclear physics is being applied to address the nation’s challenges in health, homeland and national security, nuclear energy, and some of the innovations taking place in developing and exploiting new technologies arising from nuclear science. Rising expectations best characterize the current projections of nuclear power in a world that is confronted with a burgeoning demand for energy, higher energy prices, energy supply security concerns, and growing environmental pressures. Nuclear power is a cost-effective supply-side technology for mitigating climate change and can make a considerable contribution to climate protection. This paper reviews the current status of nuclear power and its fuel cycle and provides an outlook on where nuclear power in relation to climate change may be headed in the short-to-medium run, say 20 to 40 years from now
