Ethiopia is represented as a developing country that is the second most populous in Africa, with recurring poverty, lack of investment, and infant entrepreneurship. These are all constant problems of Ethiopia that require intervention and integration efforts to mobilize the existing resources in the agriculture and manufacturing sector. The objective of this study is to explore the integration of agriculture and manufacturing industries in Ethiopia. Also, to identify challenges that hinder the linkage between these sectors.
This study is a primary analysis of 1,448 light manufacturing sectors, purposively selected from 5 sub-sectors of the manufacturing industries. A cross-sectional mixed approach analysis was conducted using qualitative and quantitative data.
The result indicates that the contribution of agriculture to the sectors in creating employment and income generation for them is not sufficient. Due to the unsuitable implementation of the agriculture-led development industrialization strategy, the linkage to the other sectors of the economy was affected
