Pre-Scaling Up of Groundnut Technology at Abaya District, Southern Oromia, Ethiopia

Despite being produced in the West Guji Zone's midlands, groundnut productivity fell short of expectations due to a variety of factors, including a lack of improved seed and biotic and abiotic factors. Purposively, the Abaya district was chosen, and a total of eight trial farmers with 0.25ha of land were used. The study used both quantitative and qualitative data, and descriptive statistics were used to analyze the results. The yield was shown to be significant (p<0.05) throughout the production years, and that access to agricultural inputs, capacity building, and the proper dissemination of technology helped to increase groundnut productivity. As a result, Tole-1 technology was suggested for further promotion at similar agro-ecology
