56BURJI SPECIAL WOREDABurji is one of the Special Woredas in the Southern Nations, Nationalities and Peoples Regional State(<strong>SNNPR</strong>S). The land area of this Special Woreda is estimated at 1374.6 sq. km., and bordered with OromiaRegion to the East and to the South, Amaro Special Woreda to the North and Konso Special Woreda to theWest.With regard to physical aspects, Burji Special Woreda can be divided agro-ecologically into Dega (1.3%),Woina Dega (42.46%) and Kolla (56.24%). Its astronomic location is between 5 0 23" latitude and 5 0 70"longitudes. The elevation varies from 501 meters to 2,500 meters above sea level. The mean annual rainfallranges from 801 - 1000 millimeters while the mean annual temperature ranges from 15.1 0 centigrade to 27.5 0centigrade.Administratively, the woreda is divided into 25 kebeles of which 24 are Peasant Associations. The population ofthe woreda is estimated to be 57,949 in 2007 composed of about equal proportion of males and females (i.e.49.57: 50.43) respectively. The populations reside in the different agro-ecological zones living on sedentaryagriculture growing different varieties of crops with a mixture of animal husbandry. In the highlands, theconcentration of the settlement is said to be higher than the lowlands that induced migration of people tolowlands.Agriculture is the mainstay of the economy of the woreda accommodating about 86 percent of the totalpopulation as a source of employment and subsistence. Teff, maize, wheat, barley beans and Enset are the mainfood crops growing in the woreda. Teff is the main crop grown at large and serve as cash crop with which theworeda is known. The use of improved agricultural technologies found at low level. Besides, the productivity ofthe land has been declining attributed to the loosened farm management and poor cultural practices. As to thelivestock holdings, there are 56,534 cattle, 2,113 equine, 2,465 sheep, and 32,926 goats and 4,500 bee clones inthe woreda.The infrastructure of the woreda is found at low level. Though there are abundant surface water resources, only850 /(11%) of the urban population and 14,700 /(31%) of the rural population have access to potable water. Thehydroelectric power supply service in the woreda is the recent history that is providing its service to onlySoyoma town of Burji woreda.Compared to the land area of the woreda, it can be said that the road network is insignificant. The existing roadis 50 km gravel road that connects the woreda to the region through Amaro Special Woreda and passes toKonso Special Woreda to the south and the road that connects to the Oromia National Regional State woredaBule Hora. This poor level of infrastructure development has multidimensional effect on socio-economicactivities of the population. It has hindered the community access to market, agricultural inputs and other socialand economic services. In addition, there is no manufacturing established in the woreda that help diversify theeconomy.MAY 2008AWASSA
