"Esta is an endangered indigenous plant in Ethiopia used to feed livestock in earlier days. The plant has been nearly vanishing due to the fact that the seedlings of the plant cannot be grown by taking seeds from
the mother plant.
Ms. Dozoze Dombe, an illiterate women traditional farmer from a village in Ethiopia, has a nursery of Esta(shola) Plants. On asking about how she managed to do it. She observed that seedlings are growing on dog’s excreta which made her curious and forced her to start her own experiment. She collected dog’s excreta from around the mother plant and planted it to get beautiful Esta seedlings.
