      abstract = {One of the agricultural policy goals in Ethiopia is to  arrest the declining tend in dairy production. The response  of the Ethiopia Government to these concerns has been the  promotion of the crossbreeding of exotic cows with  indigenous zebu cows. A question for policy makers is  whether such intervention is reversing the trend and  benefiting the rural people. This study examines its  effects on changes in dairy production technology, prices  of outputs and lab our on consumption and intra-house hold  lab our allocation. A farm household model is the  analytical frame work used to generate predictions about  the responses of farm households based on comprehensive  data collected from 60 households. The result of the  analysis predicts a high scope for the government output  price and technological intervention policy to affect  consumption. However, lab our allocation is not likely to  bee affected by prices, but is likely to be affected by a  change in technology.},
