Kindie Getnet International Water Management Institute Nov. 12, 2012 Anticipating economic consequences of rainwater management in the Blue Nile basin

Three phase research activities to achieve output 2.3 of N4 ( anticipating economic impacts of RWM ) 1. Characterizing the baseline situation at a HRU (the business as usual scenario) 2. Assessing consequences at HRU level using different RWM strategies and scenarios 3. Extrapolating HRU level consequences of the new RWM strategies to a basin scale

Characterizing the baseline situation Modeling approach - ECOSAUT Economic, social and environmental assessment of land use types and management practices (the three dimensions of sustainability) Relevant biophysical and socioeconomic data gathered for the three NBDC sites (Jeldu, Diga, Fogera) Spatial and temporal scales Crop, livestock (and interactions) and employment Water and sediment Quantitative data for quantitative analysis ECOSAUT populated for Jeldu and Fogera Preliminary analysis made for Jeldu

Preliminary results for Jeldu ECOSAUT findings mimic reality Optimization made possible over the entire sample micro- watershed (20ha) Baseline scenario generates a net farm income of USD$404,790 over 10 years 70 plots (most plots crop production, some trees, and rest grazing land)

Main findings Agriculture – Will remain main source of farm income and employment Farm income positively trending but not significantly drifting (sytem productivity stagnant, if not declining) – Given population growth, declining per capita farm income? – Poverty reduction role of agriculture not dependable? Apparent negative externalities associated with farm income growth (soil erosion) - Trade-off between farm income growth and land resource - Is the farming system sustainable? Land the most limiting resource for farm income growth

The remaining question Will a change in land use and resource management change the above indicators positively (farm income, poverty, and soil erosion) in the watershed? Next activities – Develop land use and resource management scenarios – Assess their consequences at HRU scale – Extrapolate basin-wide impact – Inform policy and decision making

Challenges Lack of crop-specific sediment and run off data Scenarios and strategies not yet concretized and quantified Assessing hydrologic and yield impacts, then economic consequences, of strategies not well linked How to extrapolate impacts to a basin level
