54ALABA SPECIAL WOREDAAlaba is one of the Special Woredas of the Southern Nations, Nationalities and Peoples Regional State(<strong>SNNPR</strong>S). The land area of this Special Woreda is estimated at 85,5.00 sq. kms, and bordered with theNational Regional State of Oromia to the East and to the South, Silte Special Woreda to the North andNorthwest and Kambata Tembaro Zone to the West.Agro-ecologically, the woreda is classified as Woina Dega. Astronomically, Alaba Special woreda is located inbetween 7 0 20” - 7 0 61” latitude and 38 0 5” – 38 0 44” longtude. The elevation of the woreda varies from 1,501meters to 2,500 meters above sea level. The average annual rainfall is 601-1200 millimeters while the averageannual temperature ranges from 17.6 0 centigrade to 22.5 0 centigrade.Administratively, the woreda is divided in to 73 Peasant Associations and one special town. The population ofthe woreda in 2007 was estimated to be 222,706. The population of the woreda lives on sedentary agriculturegrowing different varieties of crops with a mixture of animal husbandry.Agriculture is the main stay of the economy of the woreda accommodating about 87.8 percent of the totalpopulation as a source of employment and subsistence. Teff, maize, wheat, barley and beans are the main foodcrops growing in the woreda. Pepper is the main crop grown at large and serves as cash crop. As to the livestockholdings, there are 161,728 cattle, 24,538 equine, 30,750 sheep, and 36,552 goats and 10,420 beehives in theworeda.There is only one promising Perennial River, Bilate, which offers relatively reliable discharge and opportunitiesfor the irrigated agriculture. The forest cover of the woreda accounts about 5.2 percent of the woredas total landarea. Due to rapid population growth accompanied by increasing demand for arable land, agriculture, and fuelwood consumption, the forest cover of the woreda is dwindling. The depletion of forests cover contributed torapid erosion of the topsoil of the woreda. Soil erosion is intense forming gullies in sloppy areas. In addition toagricultural resources, the there are construction minerals such as stones and sands. However, the potentialmineral deposits are not well investigated and exploited.At to the water supply of the woreda about 152,836 (72.6 %) of the have access to potable water. Thehydroelectric power supply service in the woreda is good potential and the woreda is a center for redistributionto other zones.The road network of Alaba special woreda in 1997 EC totals about 65 kilometres all weather road and 119kilometeres dry weather rural or feeder roads. Compared to the land area of the woreda it can be said that theroad network is insignificant. Farmers communicate and exchange goods and services at the local markets andtransport their produce using either pack animal, carrying on head or on the back over the long distance.MAY 2008Regarding education sector, the total numbers of schools prevailing in the woreda in 1997 EC reachedAWASSA48 in
