Tamounte - Moringa agroforestry for sustainable livelihoods

Business Case

Last updated: Jul 11, 2022

Summary

Tamounte, in partnership with the Réo Nutrition Centre, has initiated an agroforestry project centred on the cultivation of moringa plants. The moringa trees are intended to be used as food for children suffering from severe malnutrition. Planting these trees also protects the land, as they serve as plant cover during droughts and stabilize the soil during the violent rains. 500 trees have been planted so far and they are periodically harvested for the Réo Nutrition Centre.
