In the African Sahel a country called Niger bordering the Sahara Desert, the largest desert in the world, is stopping desertification and turning is deserts into an Oasis.

Regenerative Agriculture is leading the way with a technique called Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration or FMNR
FMNR was pioneered in the 1980s by Tony Rinaudo and Australian Agronomist who is widely known as the forest maker. The innovative technique has been adopted by local farmers through peer to peer learning making it cost effective and easy to implement. Over the last 40 years the visual results and the data have shown FMNR has been extremely successful in turning desert into farmland. It has regenerated 5 million hectors of degraded land, 200 million trees have been restored and has benefited 2.5 million people increasing house hold income by 18-24% the available arable land has doubled since the severe droughts of the 1970s and tree density has 10x since its all time low in the 1980s.

This is an extraordinary achievement considering Niger only receives on average 6.5 inches of rainfall a year and 80% of the country is considered a desert. The country has been effected by severe droughts and suffered huge land loss over the last decades and as a consequence Niger is one of the poorest countries in the world. However Niger has been turning this around, by turning its deserts into a farmland oasis through the technique of FMNR which you will learn more about in this video.

fortelling

Research and Development (R&D) is a major profit center for the top universities in the United States. Besides the nearly $100 billion they earn in grants from the US government and private sources, university-based researchers create patents and inventions that generate many more billions annually.

China is the largest foreign source of scientists and researchers, and they are concentrated in the hard sciences and in engineering, where over 95% of R&D spending takes place. But since 2018, Chinese scientists are increasingly deciding to return to China to set up new research departments. Of those who are still in the US, over 60% admit they are strongly considering moving, and over half now refuse to work on projects that involve funding by US government sources.

To American universities, the loss of these scientists, along with future contributions to scientific research and commercial applications and market value, are incalculable. But losses probably already exceed a trillion dollars, given the departures of so many top scientists in Artificial Intelligence, Big Data, medicine, biochemistry, materials science, nanotechnology, and quantum computing.

#africanews #china when the military leaders of the Sahel came into power, Western Media said that they were replacing the West with Russia and China. They said that they are replacing one colonized with another. This is because since they came into power, the military juntas have distanced their countries from the West and drawn closer to Russia and China. But what the West does not know is that these leaders value their sovereignty above anything. In a recent move that has shocked everyone, General Tiani, the military leader of Niger, gave officials of three Chinese companies to leave the country in 48 hours. This is proof that the military leader of Niger is not succumbing to the influence of China. But why exactly did he send them packing? What did they do? Let's find out.

It would interest you to know that China was one of the countries that supported Niger after the coup led to condemnation from the West. According to a former minister of Niger, one of the reasons why General Tiani was able to stand his ground and resist Western sanctions was because China supported Niger. China, with its non-interference policy, made it a preferred choice of partner for Niger, Mali and Burkina Faso. Unlike the West which loves to interfere and play the hero in the affairs of Africa, China prefers a mutually beneficial relationship without any form of interference in the affairs of the host countries. It is this attribute that has pushed African countries farther away from their traditional partners, the West, and closer to China and Russia.


In April 2024, Niger state television announced that the military junta of Niger signed a 400 million dollar deal with a Chinese state-owned oil giant as part of its plan to “diversify international partnerships'' after cutting ties with France and the United States. The agreements, signed by Niger's Prime Minister, Ali Mahaman Lamine Zeine, and CNPC Chairman Zhou Zuokun, provide for the joint marketing of Niger's crude oil.
