I have more than 14 years of work experience in research (12 years) and agricultural development office (2 years). My research experience focuses on small ruminant genetic improvement through Community-based breeding program (CBBPs) approach and crossbreeding programmes commonly using exotic sires (Awassi and Dorper sheep breeds, and Boer goat). I also have experience in dairy cattle genetic improvement through crossbreeding programmes and various improved management interventions in the central highlands of Ethiopia.
