Agroecological Business Model: 🌱 Mixed Cropping for Food Sovereignty
Pelagie Palé from southwest Burkina Faso shows how she's increased and diversified her production with mixed cropping.
Despite her problems with access to finance, land and fertilizers, the 23-year-old farmer has been able to significantly increase her yield.
Pelagie hopes for further expansion in the future - also to create employment opportunities for other young people: "I would like to have some equipment and some workers to help me with my work."
Agroecology and employment promotion can go hand in hand to drive an ecological, economic and social transformation of Sub-Saharan Africa's agricultural systems while tackling unemployment.
