Description
(Text)
The Woreta Agricultural Technical Vocational Education and Training College (WATVETC) is provided with a considerable area with the primary objective of using it for practical training and demonstration of improved agricultural and natural resource management technologies. In addition, the land is expected to be used for agricultural production on sustainable basis and supplement the internal revenue of the College. More importantly, since research and extension services are the two of the three mandates of the College, the farm has to eventually develop to the level of an agricultural research center of the Amhara Agricultural Research Institute. However, although knowledge on soil physical and chemical characteristics plays a vital role in enabling production and productivity of the agricultural sector on sustainable basis and to undertake research in the College, there is no much information about the soils of the research farm of the College as well as the campus as a whole.
