|
|
The experiences recorded in this manual are intended to stimulate an innovative and constructive approach to environmental management particularly in those woodland areas threatened by increasing aridity. The case studies selected by PELUM Kenya and its partner organisations document the way communities living adjacent to forest areas identified and developed NTFP activities that have contributed to livelihood improvement and biodiversity conservation. Now that these experiences have been documented they can be shared with other communities living and working in similar agro-ecological areas.

Conservation agriculture holds special promise for Africa, where farming communities face the problems of low yields, impoverished soils, lack of capital, and labour shortages brought on by the scourge of AIDS. It is a way to improve the livelihoods of millions of people and achieve sustainable agriculture over a wide area. The manual is based on the skills and experience of 90 farmers, extension personnel and scientists from 16 countries throughout Africa. It is written in clear, easy-to-understand language, and is illustrated with numerous clear line drawings. Case studies throughout the book show how farmers in different situations have put conservation agriculture into effect.
