Habte Nida Chikssa's work focuses on sorghum crop research in Ethiopia, particularly breeding for drought tolerance and resistance to Striga (a parasitic weed that damages cereal crops). This includes field trials of hybrid and landrace sorghum varieties, genetic studies of root structure and water-use efficiency, and datasets from multi-year, multi-location crop evaluations across Ethiopia.

Publication output was concentrated in 2020-2021 (largely as shared datasets) with a smaller number of peer-reviewed articles appearing in 2025, indicating an uneven rather than steadily growing pattern.
