This study on bamboo species-site suitability matching for Ethiopia is intended to identify the bamboo species currently planted in the country and inform actors in the bamboo value chain about the growth performance of each species and its suitability for planting in different agroecological zones. This report captures the origin of each bamboo species, its growth performance in its native range and in the various agro-ecological zones in which it is currently grown, and its potential for ecological and socioeconomic utilization in different parts of the country. The report is intended to serve as a guide for farmers, foresters, and extension agents on matching each bamboo species to its most suitable agro ecological zone in the country. It is expected that this information will provide bamboo growers and value chain actors with much-needed confidence for decision-making on bamboo production and utilization on a commercial scale.
