This study was investigated the impact of glyphosate application on soil quality of agricultural land and followed by a survey on farmers’ perception. About 121 household heads were selected using systematic sampling technique, key informants and people for FGD were selected by purposive sampling technique Sinana woreda, south eastern Ethiopia. The qualitative data were analyzed by categorizing in to different thematic areas and narrating. The quantitative data were analyzed by SPSS with Microsoft excel. The result of the study indicated that long term and continues application of glyphosate decreasing the soil quality that decline farmers production and farmers have been not awareness about application of glyphosate. Major challenges mentioned by farmers about application of glyphosate on their farmland were shortage of educated man power, poor farmer’s knowledge about glyphosate and lack of follow up and untimely chemicals supply.Therefore, institutional mechanisms need to be stronger, regular maintenance and implementation of application in line with the recommended standards need attention to increase their effectiveness."> <meta name="citation_fulltext_html_url"

socioeconomic utilities of glyphosate as a weed killer are well established in developed countries as well as in developing countries; however, our knowledge of the potential effects of glyphosate remains limited. This study was investigated the impact of glyphosate application on soil quality of agricultural land and followed by a survey on farmers’ perception. About 121 household heads were selected using systematic sampling technique, key informants and people for FGD were selected by purposive sampling technique Sinana woreda, south eastern Ethiopia. The qualitative data were analyzed by categorizing in to different thematic areas and narrating. The quantitative data were analyzed by SPSS with Microsoft excel. The result of the study indicated that long term and continues application of glyphosate decreasing the soil quality that decline farmers production and farmers have been not awareness about application of glyphosate. Major challenges mentioned by farmers about application of glyphosate on their farmland were shortage of educated man power, poor farmer’s knowledge about glyphosate and lack of follow up and untimely chemicals supply.Therefore, institutional mechanisms need to be stronger, regular maintenance and implementation of application in line with the recommended standards need attention to increase their effectiveness.</p> </p> <p class="mb-1 font-size-3 text-muted"> <b>Published Date: </b> 2024-06-12;
