Abstract
The discussion in Chapter 6, implicitly, assumes that the government is committed to allocate extra budget to agriculture and rural development and shoulder the ensuing deficits. However, Government of Ethiopia may not easily take additional budgetary commitments for agriculture (BMGF, 2010). The current budgetary commitments to agriculture are one of the highest in Africa (MoARD, 2010; Lanos et al., 2014) while the country is striving for government assisted structural transformation (NPC, 2016).
