This study examines the adoption rates of eco-friendly livestock management practices among Northern Ethiopian villages. Data was collected through surveys conducted in , with a sample size of 350 households across 20 randomly selected villages. A significant proportion (64%) of respondents adopted at least one eco-friendly practice, with poultry rearing showing the highest adoption rate among livestock species.
