@AbiyAhmedAli,we must urgently prioritize key infrastructure projects: Shashemene–Halaba, Hossana–Gimbichu–Jacho, Addis Ababa–Butajira–Hossana, and Batu–Arsi Negele–Hawassa. Furthermore, our current economic reforms require a rigorous, in-depth revision. 'Not Business as usual'.

@AbiyAhmedAli All the points mentioned are crucial, but a key gap remains: the lack of a small processing plant for cereal crops, particularly corn a staple crop with significant potential in the Jimma area.
🌾 By creating a natural barrier using “push” plants (like Desmodium) and “pull” plants (like Napier grass), farmers can protect their crops sustainably, without relying on chemical pesticides. The result? Healthier crops, higher yields, and more resilient farming systems.
