Rocky Dawuni – African Thriller

amf.didiermary.fr/rocky-dawuni

Extraits de l’album “Branches of the Same Tree” de Rocky Dawuni sorti en 2015.

#Ghana needs more young farmers

"We found that experiencing climate extremes such as floods, droughts, rainfall variability and high temperature did not substantially discourage youth from participating in agriculture and agribusiness.

Young people are in fact attracted to farming by new innovations in agriculture that help farms withstand #ClimateChange disasters."
