In September, @MusefaRedi1, PhD candidate at WUR and whose research contributes to LSC-IS, delivered a training on the application of the ISRIC Seedling Workflow for Digital Soil Mapping to the Africa Soil Information Community of Practice. Read more: lsc-hubs.org/2025/09/26/app…

Proud moment for the Land Soil Crop (LSC) Hubs Project! Musefa Redi Abegaz, a PhD candidate at Wageningen University & Research, whose research contributes to the LSC-IS Project @ProjectLSC, has published his first PhD research paper and presented the findings to participants at the LSC-Hub workshop in Addis Ababa. Title: "Mapping Soil Fertility Properties in Central Ethiopia at 100 m Spatial Resolution." The study employs digital soil mapping techniques to generate detailed, high-resolution 3D maps of soil fertility properties across the Shewa, Arsi, and Jimma zones. This cutting-edge research supports the LSC-IS project on: "Generating Quality-Assessed Soil and Crop Information to Support Climate-Smart Fertilizer Recommendations in Central Ethiopia." and marks a significant step toward evidence-based, climate-smart agricultural planning. Congratulations to Musefa and co-authors Gerard Heuvelink and Johan G.B. Leenaars on this milestone! 🔗 [Read the full paper here](lnkd.in/efic88-f) This work was proudly supported by the Land Soil Crop Hubs Project at ISRIC - World Soil Information. @ISRICorg #LSCHub #SoilMapping #ClimateSmartAg #SoilFertility #PhDResearch #WUR #ISRIC #GeospatialScience #EthiopiaAgriculture #DigitalAg #AgResearch #OpenAccessScience #DataDrivenAgriculture

Nice to share my PhD research proposal at the LSC Hubs Annual Project Meeting @Wageningen, the Netherlands. Thanks to the LSC project coordinators for giving me the opportunity to receive feedback on my project and establish connections with numerous scientists. #LSC-Hubs, #ISRIC

@aa_prosperity The most arrogant 'leader' ever seen in the history of Ethiopia!!!

On the occasion of the upcoming Easter and Eid al-Fitr holidays, the Office of the Prime Minister in the presence of Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed, shared holiday supplies for a total of 220 people, including low-income workers in the office. #PMOEthiopia
