Revealing determinants that affects garlic production in Ethiopia using PRISMA methodology

Phenology, growth, yield, and yield-related traits of Ethiopian garlic genotypes. A review

“…Garlic has been cultivated in different parts of the country, mostly in Oromia, Amahara, Tigray, and southern Ethiopia [ 114 ]. This might be due to the fact that the most suitable production opportunity areas of the country are in Oromia, Amahara, Tigray, and Southern Ethiopia.…”

“…In Ethiopia, well-known improved and cultivated varieties include Kuriftu, Holleta, Bishoftu Nechi, Tseday 92, Chelenko I, and Chafe. Aside from that, various local cultivars were grown in the backyards of Ethiopian farmers [ 114 ]. However, the production system for garlic in Ethiopia is still traditional and not modernized.…”

“…As a result, garlic yields in 2019–2020 and 2020–2021 were reduced by 13.52%–83.18 qt/ha and 71.93 qt/ha, respectively. Gebre [ 114 ] revealed that the reduction of garlic production and productivity in Ethiopia was affected by different institutional, farmer, agronomic, and post-harvest determinants [ 91 , 95 ]. The main challenges confronting Ethiopian farmers are institutional factors such as insufficient credit service, a lack of high yielding and pest resistant varieties, a lack of improved seed providing services, the supply of chemicals and irrigation facilities, a lack of market linkage and information, and a lack of appropriate farmer level extension.…”

“…Consequently, genotypes influenced growth, yield, and yield-related traits in different areas of the country (Ethiopia) [ 18 , 19 , 21 , 22 , 24 , 26 , 27 , [30] , [31] , [32] , [33] , [34] , [35] ]. Gebre [ 114 ] indicated that garlic yield was determined by different factors in Ethiopia. Besides, the influence of garlic yield varies from place to place.…”

Effect of garlic genotypes (Allium sativum L.) on phenotype, growth, yield-related attributes, and nutritional quality at Bule Hora agro-ecology

“…Even though garlic is reproduced asexually by cloves in most of the globe by farmers, there is a significant difference in morpho-agronomic traits. This is due to the presence of various genotypes, cultivars in similar areas for an extended time, and the development of mutations [ 12 ]. [ 6 ] have revealed a significant difference in moisture, ash, carbohydrates, protein, and energy, not only among garlic cultivars belonging to varied agroecology but also between cultivars of the same agroecology.…”
