  Author(s): Yohannes Shifera Daka*
  
  Background: Natural forest degradation for coffee management and intensification in natural forest has been substantially affecting forest Carbon (C) stock potential in western and southwestern Ethiopia which is not studied well. By considering this issue, the current study was conducted with the aim to assess the soil C stock changes as a result of conversion of natural forest to coffee-based forest at Anfilo District, western Ethiopia. The District is 642 km west of Finfinne (The country’s capital city). For the present study, two adjacent land uses, Protected Natural Forest (PNF) (1,576 ha) and Forest with Coffee (FWC) (2,364 ha) were consi.. View More»
