1. Introduction
Limu Bilbilo is one of the 22 districts of Arsi zone. The name “Limu” stands for the Arsi Oromo sub- clan, which dominantly harbored in the district and Bilbilo is the name of mountain found in the district.
The main Objective of this paper is to prepare a document which shows the districts physical settings, socio-economic conditions as well as potentialities and problems for development in order to be used by policy formulators, planners, decision making bodies, investors, etc.
This paper is compiled by collecting data mostly from the concerned district and zonal sector departments as well as from the documents available in our office. Lack of attention, accuracy, shortage of required data and lack of timely response from concerned bodies are some of the problems faced. Even if it has these limitations it reflects the physical, socio-economic situations of the district.
The paper has three parts. The first part deals with physical features like location, relief, drainage, soil, vegetation and wild life. The second chapter focused on socio-economic aspects such as human population, economic activities and social infrastructures. The final chapter highlights shortly the existing problems and potentialities in Limu Bilbilo district.
