  "description": "<p>Soil erosion is a complex process that involves the detachment, movement and deposition<br>\nof soil particles mainly by wind and water but the problem is not noticed and perceived<br>\nby all farmers at the same fashion and level. Thus, the study is aimed to assess the status<br>\nof farmers&rsquo; perception of soil erosion and management practices in Arbegona woreda<br>\nwoina-dega agro-ecology zone. A two-stage systematic sampling procedure was<br>\nemployed to select four sample kebeles and 175 sample household heads to collect<br>\nprimary data. Interview and observation were also used to collect the relevant data.<br>\nDescriptive statistics, chi-square analysis and Likert scale were employed to show the<br>\nfrequency and percentage distribution of respondents. As the study has been shown the<br>\nfarmers perception of difficulty for farming, desertification, poverty and economic<br>\nbackwardness and increase the requirement for fertilizer as the consequences of soil<br>\nerosion were found relatively less and not reported by majority of the respondents except<br>\nfew educated farmers. Concerning the perception to soil erosion management practices,<br>\nclosure of grazing land, windbreak, fallowing and mulching perhaps are said to have<br>\nbeen the least perceived as management practices used by farmers except those who<br>\nattended primary and secondary education.</p>",
