Enset (<italic>Ensete ventricosum</italic> (Welw.) Cheesman) belongs to the order <italic>sctaminae</italic>, the family <italic>musaceae</italic>. The <italic>Musaceae</italic> family is subdivided into the genera <italic>Musa</italic> and <italic>Ensete</italic> [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR2">2</xref>]. Enset is an important staple crop for about 1/4 (20 million) of the population of the people living in the densely populated regions of South and Southwestern Ethiopia. The crop is grown in mixed subsistence farming systems, often in association with coffee, multi-purpose trees, and annual food and fodder crops [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR3">3</xref>]. Enset is also used for livestock feed, fuel wood, construction materials, containers, and as a provider of shade to intercropped annual or perennial crops [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR4">4</xref>]. It is cultivated between 1500 and 3100 m above sea level (m.a.sl), where daily average minimum and maximum temperatures are 8 and 27 °C, respectively [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR5">5</xref>].</p><p>The major food types obtained from enset are <italic>kocho</italic>, <italic>bulla</italic> and <italic>amicho. Kocho</italic> is fermented starch obtained from decorticated (scraped) leaf sheaths and grated corms. <italic>Bulla</italic> is obtained by squeezing out the liquid containing starch from scraped leaf sheathes and grated corm and allowing the resultant starch to concentrate into white powder. <italic>Amicho</italic> is boiled enset corm pieces, mainly obtained from young enset plants that are prepared and consumed in a similar manner to other root and tuber crops [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR6">6</xref>].</p><p>Studies indicate that numerous enset cultivars were identified in each region and the observed genetic diversity in cultivated enset in a particular area appears to be related to the extent of enset cultivation and the culture and distribution pattern of the different ethnic groups [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR7">7</xref>].</p><p>A clear understanding of the diversity and distribution of enset is important for crop improvement programs and for managing genetic resources. To measure the status of crop diversity in the field the most common method is counting named varieties. There are two main landrace diversity indices, namely: cultivar richness, which represents the number of landraces in a community, and cultivar evenness, representing the relative abundance of the individuals among the various landraces present in the community [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR8">8</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR9">9</xref>]. For farmers, genetic diversity means varietal diversity, which farmers can clearly distinguish on the basis of agro-morphological traits, phenological attributes, post-harvest characteristics, and differential adaptive performance under abiotic and biotic stresses [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR10">10</xref>].</p><p>Indigenous technical knowledge is the tool by which local people interact with the environment in order to meet needs and goals ranging from survival goals to that of achievement and esteem [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR11">11</xref>]. It is knowledge, which is unique to a local area, culture, or society, passed down from one generation to the next, usually through oral tradition. Indigenous knowledge has to do with theories, beliefs, practices, and technologies that local people have elaborated without any assistance from the modern, formal and scientific communities and/or institutions [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR12">12</xref>]. Indigenous people have a long tradition in maintaining biodiversity as a sustainable resource. Farmers have played and still continue to play a tremendous role in developing and nurturing crop genetic diversity. Many studies have shown that farmers in developing countries have intimate knowledge of environmental processes and make rational resource management decisions based on that knowledge [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>].</p><p>The southern and southwestern part of Ethiopia has an extraordinary biological and cultural diversity. Recent publication on enset ethnobotany including those by [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>] attempt to document farmers’ indigenous knowledge on enset in some cultural groups at specific location. However, those documentations are insignificant when compared to the diverse ethnolingustic communities in the country. This paper seeks to contribute towards filling this knowledge gap, based on an empirical study of enset farmers in Ethiopia. The paper address the following main question: what are farmers’ knowledge associated with the distribution, diversity, and management of enset in the country? The underlying assumption behind this question is that all farmers are equally likely to be knowledgeable about the crop.</p><p>Hence, the objectives of this study was to identify and document wealth of indigenous knowledge for folk naming, classification, distribution and abundance of enset landraces and understanding the corresponding knowledge related to utilization, management and conservation of enset landraces.</p></sec><sec id="Sec2" sec-type="materials|methods"><title>Methods</title><sec id="Sec3"><title>The study area</title><p>The SNNPR is one of the regions in Ethiopia.

They have managed to select landraces that adapt the local environment and that give multiple benefits. According to the information we obtained during individual interview, key informant and focus group discussion, management and maintenance of on-farm enset diversity is influenced by: (i) systematic propagation of the landraces, (ii) exchange of planting material (iii) selective pressure.<list list-type="simple"><list-item><label>(i)</label><p><bold>Systematic propagation of the landraces</bold></p><p>Systemic propagation of the landraces is practices used by all farmers in the study area to adjust and to maintain the landrace diversity.

The informants indicated that the propagation starts from the third stages of transplanting (Fig. <xref rid="Fig6" ref-type="fig">6e</xref>). Farmers traditionally practiced removal of the central shoot and removal of the apical dominance corms ready for burring (Fig. <xref rid="Fig6" ref-type="fig">6a</xref>). Hypothetical question posed in the interviews was what happen if you plant the corm without removal of the central part? The respondents indicated that the removal of the central area helps the propagated corm to produce more number of suckers (≥50 suckers /corm) for next season multiplication (Fig. <xref rid="Fig6" ref-type="fig">6b</xref>). The first sucker production stage stays 1 year after emergence from the buried corm (Fig. <xref rid="Fig6" ref-type="fig">6c</xref>). In the second stage, the produced multiple suckers from the buried mother corm detached and planted in rows with two to three suckers in a group, or in rows of single plants (Fig. <xref rid="Fig6" ref-type="fig">6d</xref>). A consecutive transplanting produces the third stage (Fig. <xref rid="Fig6" ref-type="fig">6e</xref>). Farmers’ indicated that the third stage is used as both the source of mother corm for sucker multiplication and harvested for consumption when there is less amount of food in the stock. At the end of the third stage, the suckers are transplanted a fourth time to the permanent field (Fig. <xref rid="Fig6" ref-type="fig">6f</xref>). The total time required from first planting to harvesting can be around 7–8 years. The propagation usually carried out in the dry season (November to early February). Farmers propagate a diverse landraces available in the farm.

Landraces which perform better under different biotic stress, and diverse agro-ecological conditions, and having multiple uses should be recommended to these subsistence farm households in order to sustain their livelihoods. Almost all informants stated that the population of enset has declined in recent times both in abundance and in distribution. The factors purportedly responsible for this decline were both agriculture and natural (disease and pest and drought) (Table <xref rid="Tab13" ref-type="table">13</xref>)<table-wrap id="Tab13"><label>Table 13</label><caption><p>Most frequently reported enset production constraints in the study area</p></caption><table frame="hsides" rules="groups"><thead><tr><th>Major constraints in enset production</th><th>Reported by % of farmers?</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Enset <italic>Xanthomonas</italic> Wilt</td><td char="." align="char">35.9</td></tr><tr><td>Enset root mealy bug</td><td char="." align="char">34.6</td></tr><tr><td>Leaf hopper</td><td char="." align="char">19.5</td></tr><tr><td>Mole rat</td><td char="." align="char">24.7</td></tr><tr><td>Porcupine</td><td char="." align="char">52.2</td></tr><tr><td>Swine</td><td char="." align="char">12.4</td></tr><tr><td>Corm rot</td><td char="." align="char">52.8</td></tr><tr><td>Drought</td><td char="." align="char">8.9</td></tr></tbody></table></table-wrap></p><p>Almost all farmers’ reported that Enset <italic>Xanthomonas</italic> wilt (EXW) had the greatest impact on enset production. Nearly 36 % of farmers reported the existence of EXW in their fields (Table <xref rid="Tab13" ref-type="table">13</xref>). Each respondent was able to name a significant number of vernacular names though not all landraces are planted and maintained in his or her backyard. Prior to the arrival of EXW, farmers in the region would have selected enset landraces for a number of traits. However; this disease causes complete death of the plant within weeks after the first symptoms and it has completely wiped out enset in some areas. The disease has forced farmers to abandon enset production resulting in critical food shortage in the densely populated areas of southern Ethiopia. It is now recognized as a national problem, having increased in severity.</p></list-item></list></p></sec></sec><sec id="Sec16"><title>Discussion</title><sec id="Sec17"><title>Strategic importance of enset</title><p>Enset is well-established, sustainable, and environmentally resilient farming system that contributes to food security of farmers and, in particular it serves as food security crop in densely populated areas. Enset needs to be present in farmers’ pits throughout the year. Enset is the most important crop in the region. According to 2011 CSA [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR16">16</xref>] report 3,020,143 km<sup>2</sup> of land is covered by enset crop and about 6.9 million quintals of enset yields were produced in 2010/11 production season.</p><p>All farmers are using the landraces developed by the community [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR21">21</xref>]. These landraces have been grown on-farm thousands of years. These enset-growing traditions still continue in the current generation. Enset represents an important cultural plant in the region. This appreciation is consistent with previous studies on the crop [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR4">4</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR6">6</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR22">22</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR23">23</xref>]. Such cultural importance is reflected in the multiple uses of enset in the traditional ecological knowledge about the crop, its biological attributes, morphological and quality variation, including size, yield and other use value quality recognized by local people among the different ethnic groups.</p></sec><sec id="Sec18"><title>Indigenous knowledge in naming and classification</title><p>Farmers’ rich knowledge that is accumulated on the crop over many years has played a significant role in naming, characterization and maintenance of the existing genetic diversity. Enset producing farmers have their own folk naming and classification system to distinguish one landrace from the other. Sometimes it is difficult to understand and reclassify, even while watching them to characterize. The classification of enset landraces has been accommodated by phenotypic differences, unique traits and specific uses of landraces. As pointed out by [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR4">4</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>], these are common characteristics of folk classification systems in enset. Folk nomenclature is an integral part of the variety management in enset farming systems [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR24">24</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR25">25</xref>]. In view of this, the multitude of names in various folk taxonomic levels indicated the occurrence of on farm genetic diversity at infra-specific level. As indicated by [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>], landrace names given by farmers’ have been used as farmers’ diversity unit for estimating unit for the extent and distribution of enset diversity as well as <italic>ex situ</italic> collection. This is also in agreement where folk taxonomy is used to highlight the amount of genetic diversity [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR18">18</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR26">26</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR27">27</xref>]. In this study, over 300 landrace names (Table <xref rid="Tab14" ref-type="table">14</xref>) have been identified which indicated the level of on farm genetic diversity. The meaning of the names of most landraces is not known. It is difficult to know unless the people who named it or the place of origin are traced back. It has been repeatedly reported that unexplained meanings of folk names were common in other ethnic groups [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>]. A similar pattern was observed in other crops like sorghum and rice [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR28">28</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR29">29</xref>]. Enset landraces were commonly exchanged and distributed according to the folk names. The finding of this study (Table <xref rid="Tab5" ref-type="table">5</xref>) and other similar studies [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR21">21</xref>] depict identically named landraces were also reported in more than one ethno-linguistic communities. Folk classification can help in identifying the comparative value of landraces (for example Tables <xref rid="Tab6" ref-type="table">6</xref>, <xref rid="Tab7" ref-type="table">7</xref> & <xref rid="Tab8" ref-type="table">8</xref>) for proper characterization and pre-breeding activities. A similar study on sorghum in Ethiopia [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR28">28</xref>] and rice in Nepal [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR29">29</xref>] has shown that name of the varieties indirectly

Farmer’s in one household generally knows which households certainly have named varieties and their particular agronomic and use value related characteristics. Knowing folk taxonomy also helps in developing planting material distribution, flow channels, and regional landrace map. Thus, even if landrace names and classification are a necessary basis, they are not sufficient to describe genetic diversity. Integrative indicators have been designed e.g., complementing the naming and folk classification with parameters of genetic diversity. Our data thus needs to be complemented by phenotypic and genotypic information which helps to avoid redundancies and optimizing the efficient conservation and sustainable use of the crop.</p></sec><sec id="Sec19"><title>Level of on-farm richness, diversity and pattern of use</title><p>Enset farming systems are rich in landraces diversity. In the study area we recorded a relatively high landraces (312) richness of enset. For instant, in previous studies, comparable results were reported by [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR21">21</xref>], who described 218 different enset landraces from seven ethnic groups. One hundred eleven enset landraces were also reported from nine growing areas of Ethiopia [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR7">7</xref>], while [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>] described 67 enset landraces from Wolaita zone of the southern region. The number of enset landraces in this study is far higher than what was reported by previous studies which were conducted in zones with similar climatic and altitudinal factors. For instance, [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR21">21</xref>] reported the presence of 41 landraces in Dawro, which is far below the number of enset landraces reported in the present study. During discussion with the farmers it has been observed that, there were more than 100 enset landraces grown in each locality a few years back, however, farmers reported that most of the landraces were lost due to EXW. Tesfaye [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR24">24</xref>] also found out that in Sidama zone farmers reported names of 20 enset landraces which were not encountered in any of the farms that were visited. Some enset landraces might have been totally lost from farmers’ fields.</p><p>Enset is a multipurpose crop which is utilized for different use values. Based on their use value and folk classification large differences were evident between landrace abundance and distribution in the region. Some landraces, particularly those having merits of better <italic>kocho</italic> yield and quality have got a wider distribution within and between ethnic groups/zones. For example, the enset landraces ‘<italic>Shododenia</italic>’ and ‘<italic>Addo’</italic> were encountered on respectively 37 and 34 (92.5 and 85 %) farms visited in Dawro and Sidama, but were not found in any other surveyed zones. Some landraces had a very high local abundance at one or two locations and were absent from the rest. For example <italic>Shodedenia</italic> was encountered on 100 % of the farms visited in Dawro. It was encountered on all the 40 (100 %) farms visited in Dawro. Likewise, [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR24">24</xref>] reported a small number of landraces (for instant <italic>Genticha</italic>) playing a dominant role in Sidama zone. Our study revealed that the highest use values of the landraces were found in the region which also corresponds to where the landraces had the highest abundance in the farming system. This suggests a positive relationship between plant abundance and use. These findings corroborate the “apparency hypothesis” which describes dominant, large and more abundant plant species as having the highest use values.</p><p>Enset bacterial wilt, caused by <italic>Xanthomonas campestris</italic> pv. <italic>musacearum</italic>, is the most important biotic constraint to enset cultivation [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR6">6</xref>]. In order to alleviate this biotic stress farmers integrate EXW tolerant landraces in their farms. The <italic>kocho</italic> yield of these disease tolerant landraces is however below average [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR26">26</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR27">27</xref>]. Moreover, some enset landraces are known by farmers to have medicinal value for both humans and animals. These landraces are most often poor yielding and are only maintained for special traditional or religious purposes/uses. Those landraces are reported to heal bone fractures, are used for treating diarrhea and during child delivery i.e., assisting the discharge of the placenta. Most reports of medicinal and ritual uses of enset indicate that farmers’ intentionally maintain the landraces together with other landraces. For example, [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR27">27</xref>] described 14 enset landraces based on their medicinal and ritual use value. Likewise, [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR26">26</xref>] reported a number of different enset landraces to have medicinal and religious (ritual) significance for preventive treatment, healing and other therapeutic purposes and as protection against evil spirits. Farmers also categorize enset landraces as male or female based on different characteristics [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR21">21</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR30">30</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR31">31</xref>]. However, the designation of landraces as ‘male’ or ‘female’ is not linked to their reproductive biology. According to farmers, the male enset landraces are drought tolerant. This designation is very important for maintaining landraces for <italic>amicho</italic> use value. Female landraces are described by farmers as less vigorous, susceptible to disease, having a higher <italic>kocho</italic> quality and producing edible and tasty <italic>amicho</italic> [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR31">31</xref>]. In addition, they are early maturing and have poor fiber strength. Surprisingly, few landraces have more than one use value. For example, the landraces ‘<italic>Astara</italic>’ and ‘<italic>Addo</italic>’ are known for their <italic>kocho</italic> yield and fiber quality. Similarly, in the Kembata area the landrace ‘<italic>Siskela</italic>’ is maintained by farmers for its high fiber yield and quality in addition to its high <italic>kocho</italic> yield. Studies by [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR25">25</xref>] revealed that in most ethnical groups farmers maintain a single landrace for multiple uses. In some cases, poorly producing landraces continue to be maintained for special traditional (e.g., medicinal value) or religious uses. Farmers often maintain low yielding landraces that have medicinal values [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR25">25</xref>]. Similar observations have been made in banana-based communities in Uganda [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR32">32</xref>] or in rise systems in Asia [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR33">33</xref>].</p><p>Knowledge of the local usage of enset resources is essential for the elaboration of conservation strategies. This is the first time that the use values according to various ethnic groups in the study area have been evaluated in detail for enset. Overall, we found less diverse ethnic variation in knowledge and use values of enset, as has been found for difference within the same ethnic group [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>]. In general, this study and the previous studies have shown that different ethnic groups in the enset farming system demonstrated the existence of considerable amount of indigenous ethnobotany knowledge. High landrace diversity in a region may indicate extended periods of enset cultivation and a more subsistence form of production.</p></sec><sec id="Sec20"><title>Indigenous knowledge on the management of enset diversity</title><p>In the region, farmers’ manage local enset landraces within traditional production and processing systems oriented towards meeting household subsistence needs. Both women and men as producers, selectors, processors and marketers of enset are traditionally the custodians of <italic>in situ</italic> conservation. Farmers generally choose planting material from their existing mats. Farmers plant their enset landraces mixed on their fields, usually two or ten, but sometimes up to 20 landraces in one plot. It is traditional to use a corm and sucker as planting material and use of different transplanting stages in enset producing farmers. It was found that many households could propagate enset landraces in at least two ways and this flexibility of propagation might also reflect a relative preference for growing in a large area. A similar observation was also reported in other enset growing areas [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR30">30</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR31">31</xref>]. However it is yet to be identified whether such variations in propagation have some implications on maintenance of diversity <italic>in situ</italic>. Farmers observe and select the landraces based on their planting intentions for the coming year than the proportion to the quantity they have. This scenario has been maintained by the systematic propagation of 3–4 years old enset landraces. Other study [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>] revealed that regular propagation and harvesting restrain; organized assemblage and arrangement of landraces in the home gardens and landrace composition regulation in the home gardens have been the major factor for indigenous management and maintenance of enset landraces on-farm. The rich selection experience on indigenous crop such as enset is also applied to other crops like sorghum [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR24">24</xref>].</p><p>The number of landraces grown at a given locality, their genetic similarity and the areas they occupy over time and space are influenced by planting material source, exchange and supply. Most planting material exchange is local, though a small proportion extends beyond the local group of villages reflecting relationships among neighbors and kin in most cases. All landraces used in the region are local farmer-named varieties. Among the surveyed farms, most farmers produce their own planting material. In addition farmers in the region have fixed systems to ensure the sustenance of planting material supply for each season. Farmers in cereal based farming system have well-established systems to ensure self-sustaining seed supply system and they often operate the exchange of planting material in the local market [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR34">34</xref>]. In general, on-farm conservation enhances continued source and supply of genetic material and continued diversity-based agriculture as compared to monoculture by ensuring intraspecific and interspecific diversity of crops. Farmers themselves perceived an advantage in continuing to grow diverse traditional crops and their participation in conservation of a traditional seed system proved to be self-sustaining.</p><p>Similarly farmers in the region quite frequently practices grow their landraces in mixture to stabilize their crop production, especially under adverse growing condition. Farmers may retain their preferred landraces over many years, often claiming they received no external inputs of seed/planting material. Plant diseases can also reduce the level of biodiversity or limit the variety of plants grown in an area. It have been observed that, the genetic base has been vulnerable to a range of very damaging biotic and abiotic stresses such as Enset <italic>Xanthomonas</italic> wilt (EXW), enset root mealy bug, leaf hopper, mole rat, Porcupine, wild pigs, corm rot, and drought. It is the EXW which has had the greatest impact on enset production. In Hadiya zone Lemu wereda 30 % of enset crop affected by EXW [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR35">35</xref>]. Therefore, farmers are forced to develop their copping strategies. Almost all surveyed farmers in the region practice cropping and dietary patterns change and grow more number of disease resistant plants as a strategy for the management of the disease. For instance, [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR36">36</xref>] indicated genetic diversity can be seen as a defense against problems caused by genetic vulnerability. To reduce the likelihood of spread, establishment and growth of EXW in enset crops, a systematic operational approach to the management of EXW should be adopted. This should include giving training to farmers on appropriate production practices, using healthy suckers and planting in clean soils. Future efforts surely need to focus on developing core collections representative of the widest possible genetic diversity for enset improvement and using this to strengthen <italic>in situ</italic> or on farm conservation.</p></sec></sec><sec id="Sec21"><title>Conclusion</title><p>The information collected in the region and presented here shows that a certain wealth and diversity of knowledge regarding traditional naming, uses of plants and diversity management as a part of the cultural heritage of the community.

The inconsistency is highly related with the ethnolinguistic variation in the region.

A principal conclusion from the present study is that the biggest uses of landraces, in terms of the number of citations in the literatures, are for <italic>kocho</italic>, <italic>bulla</italic>, <italic>amicho</italic>, fiber and medicine. Certain traditional practices (for example spiritual or rituals) also lead farmers to maintain small quantities of uncommon landraces that may not produce well. This scenario points to the importance of use value based and other criteria similarity and differences for landrace diversity maintenance and management. Hence, formal enset improvement program needs to positioned in to multipurpose enset variety development scheme and include farmers and their knowledge in the research-extension continuum.</p><p>Landrace diversity in the region is affected by a number of factors.
