Deanne describes here the do and don'ts for starting up a permaculture project in a subtropical region. Speaking from her experience with successes and failures, the rules for permaculture project are different but rewarding. Deanne demonstrates the permaculture beds and how they evoluate.
Wtth permaculture you can create ecosystems that require less input from you with permaculture designs.

"Permaculture Senegal" is based on the principles of David Holmgren and Bill Mollison.

You need a farmer at least 3 times a day. Find out how one farmer is maximising on this and spending in a month what he earns in a week. Also how various indigenous vegetable varieties are continually improving in economic value.

Promoting zero deforestation agriculture, the case of cocoa farming (agroforestry).

On the one hand, we have drylands. They constitute 60% of the surface of the African continent, and while some might think they do not have much agricultural potential, they can actually sustain thriving agricultural practices, including – but not limited to – agroforestry systems.

On the other hand, we have youth. Young people are dynamic and innovative; have a high uptake of technological know-how; and are passionate, perseverant, and most of all, courageous.

During this Youth Daily Show, we want to explore the opportunities that agroforestry can bring to Africa’s drylands – not only as a sustainable food system, but also as an opportunity for youth employment and the achievement of food security for present and future generations. We will hear from amazing young professionals from across the African continent, who will share their experience with, and innovations for, dryland agroforestry.

⁣Agroforestry and Agricultural Extension

Agriculture is the main driver of deforestation. We discuss how agroforestry can regenerate our ecosystem with environmentalist Debra Kiliru and small holder farm family Mr & Mrs Agbenoxevi. [a]www.okoforests.com[/a]

We at Oko Forests are committed to adopting and promoting sustainable agricultural practices. For more information please visit [a]www.okoforests.com[/a]

Agroforestry is a land use management system in which trees and shrubs are grown around or among crops or pastureland. It combines shrubs and trees in agricultural and forestry technologies to create more diverse, productive, profitable, healthy, and sustainable land-use systems.

Agroforestry eases the tension between increased food production and environmental problems (soil and land degradation, erosion, water runoff and flooding, loss of biodiversity, breakdown of agroecological function, increased GHG emissions) by harnessing biological nitrogen fixation and agroecosystem diversification.

The Accelerating the Adoption of Agroforestry Project currently works with 24 community groups with a total of 600 members in Kericho and Kisumu counties in Kenya. 144 lead-farmers were trained in self-selected and context-specific climate-smart practices, including agroforestry, horticulture, coffee farming, poultry keeping and livestock keeping. Through farmer to farmer extension, the project reaches thousands of households in the project area and beyond.
