Smallholders in Ethiopia are set to benefit from development of tree value-chains.
Wood-fuel, round wood, livestock fodder, honey and medicinal plants obtained from tree resources contributed up to 12.9% of Ethiopia’s GDP in 2012 (UNEP 2016). Millions of Ethiopia’s large population rely on tree products to support their livelihoods and complement agricultural production.
