7. Ethiopia lies from longitudes 33°E to 55°E and latitudes from 3.5°N
to 15°N, covering a land area of 1.13 million km² and including large
areas of flat land and gently rolling hilly areas as well as steep
mountains and ragged valleys. There is an uneven distribution among
regions, mainly varies with regional altitude changes from slightly
below sea level to more than 4,000 m above sea level (Figure XX). Thus,
the climate of Ethiopia is quite variable across the country.

The Coffee Production change under Climate Change in Ethiopia

Ethiopia’s
climate is mainly tropical steppe climate and subtropical forest
climate, the annual average temperature is from 10 to 27°C and the
tropical zone receives less than 510 mm rain per annum, while the
subtropical zone, which includes most of the highlands, receives 510 to
1,530 mm of rain annually (Mati, 2006). Despite it is difficult to make
agricultural planning due to variable rainfall, a large proportion of
the Ethiopia gets sufficient for rain-fed crop production. In the north
of the country, the rainfall pattern is mainly bimodal, with the shorter
starts around March/April and the second one begins around June/July. In
some regions, the two seasons combine into a unimodal pattern, which the
main crop planting season is from June to October and it almost depends
on rain. The main crops in Ethiopia are teff (Eragrostis tef), maize
(Zea mays) and wheat (Triticum aestivum Linn.), etc.
