にもかかわらず 行き詰まり,妨げるs, Ethiopia 規模s up 大規模な tree-工場/植物ing (選挙などの)運動をする
Ethiopians 工場/植物d four billion trees last year and are 目的(とする)ing for five billion this year -- but there are 関心s many seedlings don't grow
勇敢に立ち向かうing a 激しい downpour, hundreds of 農業者s spent a 十分な day 工場/植物ing 20,000 acacia seedlings on a barren hillside outside the town of Buee in southern Ethiopia last year.
They were 答える/応じるing to a call last July from 総理大臣 Abiy Ahmed, who 手配中の,お尋ね者 his countrymen to 工場/植物 200 million trees in a 選び出す/独身 day, 粉々にするing the world 記録,記録的な/記録する.
But while the 農業者s had "広大な/多数の/重要な 期待s", nearly a year later -- as Ethiopia celebrated World 環境 Day on Friday -- they said the results in Buee were a 失望.
降雨 すぐに washed away more than one-third of the seedlings, and those that remain have struggled to grow out of あわてて-dug 穴を開けるs filled with poor 国/地域, said Ewnatu Kornen, a 地元の 環境 公式の/役人.
The 農業者s' ordeal points to the 可能性のある 落し穴s of 集まり-工場/植物ing 運動s, which are central to Abiy's "Green 遺産/遺物" (選挙などの)運動をする to 促進する ecotourism and transform Ethiopia into an environmentally-friendly economy.
Some 353 million seedlings -- 153 million more than the 初期の goal -- went into the ground 全国的な during last year's daylong 集まり-工場/植物ing, によれば 公式の/役人 人物/姿/数字s.
That's a mere fraction of the four billion trees 報道によれば 工場/植物d during the entire 2019 雨の season, which runs from June to September in Ethiopia.
This year's 集まり-工場/植物ing has yet to be scheduled, but Abiy on Friday 公式に 開始する,打ち上げるd a 押し進める for five billion new trees this 雨の season.
Ehiopia's 総理大臣 Abiy Ahmed 工場/植物s a 解放する/自由な in a pre-dug 穴を開ける at a 儀式 on Friday
At a 儀式 in the southern city of Hawassa, he told 公式の/役人s he 手配中の,お尋ね者 the country to 工場/植物 20 billion trees over four years.
Outside Ethiopia, 審議 has 渦巻くd over the 信用性 of these 注目する,もくろむ-popping 人物/姿/数字s.
Yet 地元の 専門家s say there are more important questions: Has the 工場/植物ing been 適切に organised, and has there been enough follow-up to keep the trees alive?
"It's not really about the numbers," said Negash Teklu, 長,率いる of a group of NGOs known as the 全住民 Health & 環境 Ethiopia 国際借款団/連合.
"It's about the 有効性 of the tree-工場/植物ing 計画/陰謀."
- A year-一連の会議、交渉/完成する approach -
Last month Abiy 発表するd that 84 パーセント of the four billion trees 工場/植物d in 2019 had 生き残るd, crediting "広範囲にわたる care-taking work" throughout the year.
No known 独立した・無所属 熟考する/考慮するs have been 行為/行うd.
But Negash, who 強調する/ストレスd that he 概して supports Abiy's tree-工場/植物ing 協議事項, 嫌疑者,容疑者/疑うs the 生き残り 率 is "高度に 誇張するd".
"They were not considering how the community can be owners of the 過程. It was more 無作為の -- 'Oh, we will 工場/植物,'" Negash said of last year's 成果/努力.
This was 明らかな in the 資本/首都, Addis Ababa, where some 居住(者)s 工場/植物d ornamental trees in wild forests outside the city centre, while others placed large trees in the medians of busy streets -- where they had no chance of 生き残り.

"It shouldn't be a one-day (選挙などの)運動をする that happens every year. It should be an approach that really engages every 国民 wherever they are" year-一連の会議、交渉/完成する, he 追加するd.
- Winning communities over-
Belaynesh Zewdie, a 植林学 専門家 with the UN 開発 Programme in Buee, has seen firsthand how 事業/計画(する)s that 欠如(する) community buy-in can go awry.
In the late 1980s, under the 共産主義者 Derg 政権, she was 伴う/関わるd in a 計画/陰謀 to 工場/植物 one million acacia trees in the northern Amhara 地域.
But the 計画/陰謀 was 最高の,を越す-負かす/撃墜する and "軍隊d", she 解任するs, and once the 政権 fell in 1991 angry 居住(者)s (疑いを)晴らすd the trees to plough the land.
In 最近の years, Belaynesh has worked on a 農園 and rehabilitation 事業/計画(する) in Buee that tries to 配達する 即座の and 固める/コンクリート 利益s to those living nearby.
専門家s have 強調d that communities need to be 投資するd in the 過程 for the trees to 栄える
Part of the 事業/計画(する)'s 保護するd area lies in a watershed, so she has 建設するd ponds that 申し込む/申し出 herders an 代案/選択肢 water source for their cattle.
She has also given 居住(者)s eucalyptus seedlings to 工場/植物 近づく their homes so they're not tempted to 削減(する) 負かす/撃墜する the 事業/計画(する)'s acacia and silky oak trees.
The 事業/計画(する)'s nursery, 一方/合間, 雇うs 17 地元の women who earn 概略で $50 per month -- a tidy sum for the 地域.
The result -- ヘクタールs upon ヘクタールs of green, 栄えるing trees -- illustrates what can be 達成するd "if you discuss with the community, if the community 受託するs you," Bela ynesh said.
"I myself, I am impressed still every time I come here and I see it," she said. "It's unbelievable."
