Extensive utilization of the land resources for centuries resulted in severe land degradation in the Tigray region of northern Ethiopia. To reverse the problem, land restoration activities have been carried out for the past three decades. This study was initiated to determine the effect of community-based soil and water conservation interventions on soil glomalin, aggregate size distribution, water stable aggregates (WSA) and aggregate-associated organic carbon.
