Konso special woreda
Konso is one of the woredas in the Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples' Region (SNNPR) of Ethiopia. Because Konso is not part of any Zone in the SNNPR, it is considered a Special woreda, an administrative subdivision which is similar to an autonomous area. This woreda is named after the Konso people. Located in the Great Rift Valley, Konso is bordered on the south by the Oromia Region, on the west by the Weito River which separates it from the Debub Omo Zone, on the north by the Dirashe special woreda, on the northeast by Amaro special woreda, and on the east by Burji special woreda. The Sagan River, which flows south then west to join the Weito, defines part of the woreda's boundary with Burji and the entire length of the boundary with the Oromia Region. The administrative center is Karati; other towns in Konso include Fasha and Sagan.
== Overview ==
Rivers in this woreda include the Talpeena, a tributary of the Sagan. A 1996 UNDP-EUE report divided the area of this special woreda "by differences of altitude and economic exploitation," which are the "semi-arid lowland areas supporting the majority of the population (between 60-70 percent); and agricultural uplands in the middle altitude supporting the rest of the primarily cultivating population."〔("Preliminary examination of major factos affecting subsistence economy of South Omo Zone and Konso special wereda in South-western Ethiopia" ) UNDP-EUE Report, May 1996 (accessed 22 January 2009)〕 The native Konso traditionally practice a distinct and sustainable form of agriculture that involves the building and maintaining of stone terraces, and fertilizing the fields with manure. A central feature of their fields is the endemic tree crop, ''Moringa stenopetala''. The main crop is sorghum, along with some root crops and cotton.〔("Important Bird Area factsheet: Konso - Segen, Ethiopia" ), BirdLife International website (accessed 31 August 2009)〕
According to a 2004 report, Konso had 178 kilometers of all-weather roads and 81 kilometers of dry-weather roads, for an average road density of 114 kilometers per 1000 square kilometers.〔("Detailed statistics on roads" ), SNNPR Bureau of Finance and Economic Development website (accessed 15 September 2009)〕 The Central Statistical Agency (CSA) reported that five tons of coffee were produced in this woreda in the year ending in 2005, based on inspection records from the Ethiopian Coffee and Tea authority. This represents less than 0.1% of the SNNPR's output and less than 0.1% of Ethiopia's total output.〔(CSA 2005 National Statistics ), Table D.2〕
