Professor and classmates,

;In my research I found that the agriculture and food security in Ethiopia is low. ; “Meanwhile, population growth to date has led to notably small farm sizes, with Ethiopia’s land tenure rules compounding the challenge. Land degradation and deforestation are major problems.” ; (cic.nyu.edu/…/evans_security_ethiop…). ; The would affect the farmers and people in that nation. ; What the need is a way to get water to their crops. ; The fields are rain feed and not ;irrigated. ; Plus, they need to have access to electricity which they have trouble getting. ; This reduces the productivity for farmer’s to move forward. ; The government is helping the farmer’s with “access to credit, farmers’ cooperatives, and the need to make the agriculture system more demand-driven.” ; (cic.nyu.edu/…/evans_security_ethiop…). ; The government does not recognize that water and energy growth is not ;sustainable. ; The government ;can help the farmer’ by putting irrigation systems in and providing electricity. ; If the government does not help the farmer’s out then Ethiopia will stay in the same situation. ; Ethiopia could become a world class producer is given the chance. ; With the help of the government the nation could export their greatest food source, banana’s. ; Like Japan does with it rice. ; Japan specializes in toys, mechanics, electronic product and their earnings in the exportations of minerals in turn helps the economy. ; Ethiopia does not have the resources to produce toys, mechanics, electronics to other countries.

STUDENT #2 RESPONSE

Hello Class and Prof,

I believe the children of Ethiopia have the most difficult time dealing with scarcity. ; Children are spending their time in the field instead of schools. ; Which is causing a lack of education in Ethiopia. ; With the shortage of water to bathe many children have died because of sickness and infections.

I believe Ethiopians need water the most because it entails their daily lives. ; Ethiopians face water shortages, poor sanitation, and lack of clean water. ; Drought and politics are the two leading causes of water shortage. ; Droughts have affected several areas of the country including ponds, wells, streams, and lakes drying up or becoming extremely shallow. ; These water sources are often contaminated with human and animal waste, worms, or diseases. ; There is not enough water for people to bathe leading to sickness and infection. ;

Ethiopian farmers don’t have access to water for irrigation because of the way the river was divided up hundreds of years ago. ; The global warming has caused the rainy season in Ethiopia to become shorter. ; Fields are drying up and farmers are fighting over irrigation resources.

Better fed people can contribute longer to economic growth and raise the country’s GDP. ; They will have healthier children who are educated raising the human capital of the country. ;

Ethiopians are so impoverished because they don’t have any institutions that support prosperity. ; Doing business in their country is extremely difficult. ; If an Ethiopian has a great idea then they stay poor because no one will finance it. ;

Ethiopian needs institutions that encourage smart ideas and finance it. ; The government needs to limit bureaucratic procedures that Ethiopians have to go through. ; Also the government can help to irrigate their field for the crops, especially in the drought season.

Ethiopia could become a world class producer if given the chance. ; With the help of the government they could export the majority of food. ; Japan is a major export of rice. ; They also specialize in toys, electronics, and etc. ; Their earnings in the exportations of minerals helps the economy. ; Both countries could be world class with their natural resources, but Japan is different when it comes to electronics. ; Japan is also world class producer when it comes to electronics.
