Dryland Husbandry in the Sudan
Grassroots Experience and Development
Sudan has the largest landmass of any African country, and two thirds of the land is arid or semi-arid desert. It is affected by drought, famine, increased desertification and depleting agricultural and livestock production. This book details activities carried out by the Dryland Husbandry Project in Sudan. This aims to involve pastoralists in the management and conservation of their resources, adopting a bottom up approach with the priorities of local people at heart. The study covers: project interventions in extension work, trail-based, action-orientated research, gender-based activities, policy dialogue, environmental profiling, activities of rangeland and water management and the role of women in livestock production.
