About the Book:
This book reviews methods and techniques that have been successfully applied in semi-arid regions and explores their potential relevance to other conditions as well. It focuses on areas where rainfall is a major issue due to its quantity, distribution, or unreliability. The author provides a thorough overview of the scale and importance of these challenges, alongside the difficulties and opportunities for improvement. The book strongly advocates that drought is a natural part of life in semi-arid areas and presents compelling evidence that the recent disasters of degradation and famine, especially in Africa, are the result of misuse and mismanagement of natural resources. Such mismanagement has severely diminished the region’s ability to cope with the additional stresses imposed by drought.
