Livelihood assets have been greatly influenced by the transformation of farmlands in peri-urban areas. The objective of this study is to analyze the effects of farmland conversion to access livelihood assets in peri-urban areas of Akaki-Kaliti Sub-city, Central Ethiopia. Required data were collected from survey households, key informant interviews, and focus group discussions. A cross-sectional survey research design was employed to collect information from 329 peri-urban households selected using a snowballing sampling technique. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze the data. The results revealed that the conversion of farmland has negatively affected the overall livelihood assets in the study area. Besides, the effects on financial assets were considerable. However, the effects on physical and human assets were not significant. Natural asset shows a substantial decline followed by social and physical assets. However, financial and human assets show a slight decline. In general, conversions in farmlands have negatively influenced households' access to livelihood assets in the study area. Therefore, intervention is required to reduce the effects of farmland conversion and enhance the livelihoods of land-lost farmers in the peri-urban areas.

亚的斯亚贝巴大都市郊区农田转用对生计资产的影响,以埃塞俄比亚中部 Akaki Kaliti 副城为例

生计资产受到城郊农田改造的极大影响。本研究的目的是分析在埃塞俄比亚中部的 Akaki-Kaliti 次城郊区转用农田以获得生计资产的影响。所需数据来自调查家庭、关键知情人访谈和焦点小组讨论。采用横断面调查研究设计从使用滚雪球抽样技术选择的 329 个城郊家庭收集信息。描述性和推论性统计用于分析数据。结果表明,耕地转用对研究区的整体生计资产产生了负面影响。此外,对金融资产的影响也很大。然而,对实物和人力资产的影响并不显着。自然资产显着下降,其次是社会和实物资产。但是,金融和人力资产略有下降。总体而言,农田的转变对研究区域内家庭获得生计资产产生了负面影响。因此,需要进行干预,以减少农田转用的影响,并改善城郊地区被征地农民的生计。
