    L’agroécologie paysanne comme alternative à la baisse de la production agricole. Cas de la région de Ségou

    Policy Papers & Briefs
    January, 2024
    Mali

    Les chocs climatiques exercent une pression sur les terres agricoles qui se manifeste par la surexploitation des terres et l’utilisation abusive d’intrants, ce qui accélère et aggrave leur dégradation (lessivage continu, érosion, transport des particules).

Elle encourage l’investissement dans les terres agricoles (par des plantations d’arbres à des fins agroécologiques).
