    <dct:description>&lt;p&gt;Micro and Small Enterprises (MSEs) are widely&lt;br&gt; recognized for their contribution to economic&lt;br&gt; growth, employment and inclusive economic&lt;br&gt; development. However, the seasonality and risk&lt;br&gt; of agriculture significantly hurt the development&lt;br&gt; of agricultural enterprises. Evidence from Ethiopia&lt;br&gt; showed that the relative performance of agricultural&lt;br&gt; MSEs are very limited in job creation and&lt;br&gt; growth. As a result, this study aimed to analyze&lt;br&gt; the growth of agricultural MSEs in North Wollo&lt;br&gt; Zone, Ethiopia. The study found that shortage of&lt;br&gt; working capital, insufficient loans, increased input&lt;br&gt; prices, lack of adequate and reliable input supply,&lt;br&gt; and absence of sustainable government support&lt;br&gt; are perceived as the major challenges of MSEs in&lt;br&gt; the study area. The results of a Multiple regression&lt;br&gt; model revealed that enterprise manager education,&lt;br&gt; number of employees, number of training,&lt;br&gt; credit use, record keeping, and access to reliable&lt;br&gt; market positively affected the growth of MSEs,&lt;br&gt; while association ownership structure negatively&lt;br&gt; affected it.&lt;/p&gt;</dct:description>
