From Monoculture to Biodiversity: How Small Farmers in Africa are Fighting Climate Change

11 Luglio 2023

We thank God for farmers who are sustaining the food systems and protecting Mother Earth.

They are allowing previous suppressed trees to regenerate on their lands, resulting in improved crop yields, productive fruit harvest and a boost for carbon storage.
