Desertification in Ethiopian highlands
semi-arid areas where population density is high through use of small scale irri-
gation and yield increasing farm production inputs.
• Release population pressure through family planning, creating off farm em-
ployment, other income generating activities, and also through voluntary and
well planned re-settlement programmes.
