dc.description.abstractThe study assesses water quality change of the Akaki river system since the introduction of irrigation, and farmers' adaptations in response to changes, so that evidence of water quality challenges on irrigated agriculture are identified. The river has been used as natural drainage for Addis Ababa city solid and liquid wastes. A reverse water chain approach was applied to understand the urban water system with a focus on interaction of upper stream polluters and end users (in these case irrigators). For farmers, yield reduction and abnormal growth of vegetables are some of the indirect indicators for water quality change.en
