In this study questionnaire, interview and focus group discussions were used as a means ofrnprimary data collection tools while secondary data were collected from relevant authorityrnreports and records. The data was analyzed both by qualitative method and quantitative method.rnThe findings of the research showed that the study area is suffering from land degradation. It isrncaused by population pressure, continuous cultivation, free grazing/overgrazing, deforestation,rnunseasonal heavy rainfall and steep slope cultivation. Land management strategies of farmersrninclude: terracing, soil bunds and contour plaguing are mostly practiced. The educational statusrnof farmers and their access to extension services as well as farmersâ€™ training have significantrnpositive impact on farmers to land management practices. The researcher concludes that evenrnthough the Woreda have been practicing different types of land management practices, however,rnthe changes on the ground are very less and not continuous. The researcher recommends thatrnWoreda should intensively work on provision of better alternative measures of natural resourcernconservations like agro-forestry and work on capacity building of farmers to do so. Government,rnNGOs, Institutions and community at large should work on the issue of land management cooperatively on permanent manner. Different opportunities and supportive activities are recommended for off farm activities and so on.rnKeywords: Land management, terracing, soil bunds, contour plaguing, land degradation,rnpopulation pressure, continuous cultivation free grazing, deforestation, unseasonalrnheavy rainfall, steep slope cultivation
