What is Ethiopia known for from agriculture perspective?
Ethiopia is well known for its exports of coffee, sesame seeds, gold, cut flowers, and zinc(World bank data). In terms of geography and climate, Ethiopia is slightly less than twice the size of Texas and has a tropical monsoon climate with wide topographic-induced variation (World factbook). The country is located on a high plateau with a central mountain range that is divided by the Great Rift Valley. The typical family size in Ethiopia is five members, and the type of dwelling they live in depends on whether they are in a rural or urban area. In Ethiopia, many families live in traditional thatched-roof houses made of mud or wattle and daub, while urban dwellings are more likely to be made of brick or concrete. However, they may still be relatively small and basic, with limited amenities, and many families in urban areas live in overcrowded and informal settlements that lack basic infrastructure and services.
