Contro Coltura
Directed by
Climate change is a global phenomenon, but its effects vary depending on local ecosystems and economies. In Senegal it manifests as a dramatic decrease in rainfall, rising sea levels, water salinization, mangrove forest reduction, and soil acidification in southern Senegal. Could the rediscovery of fonio, a type of millet and one of the oldest seeded cereals of sub-Saharan Africa, provide a solution?
