How They Transformed Desert Into Fertile Farmland & Forests

This country is has been making some large scale incredible transformations, restoring forests and farmland, turning a community from food aid dependent into food producers. It's an amazing achievement considering the fact this countries geography makes it very venerable to desertification due to its proximity to several deserts, such as the Sahara and Great Arabian Deserts. This country also has a desert known as the hottest driest and most inhospitable place on earth known as the Danakil desert. Several factors have led to the population forgetting how to manage their landscapes sustainably causing an unprecedented crisis in the 1980's with famine that continued to make the community food aid dependent, the landscape was eroded and degraded, causing devastating landslides and floods during the rainy season, and prolonged, crippling drought in the dry season. Over the last decade they have managed to turn this around working with Tony Rinaudo and WorldVison they have been able to restore hundred and thousands of hectares of land, that have help to restore the water-shed, holding water during the wet season and letting it soak into the aquifers, instead of being washed away, as a result there is still water flowing in the dry season and farmers have been able to not only be self-reliant but also food producers, selling their surplus crops.

The FMNR technique shown where they trim shrubs to promote taller and faster growth is literally what elephants and large herbivores would be doing-and their poop and trampling would make the perfect mulch layer to retain soil moisture for the plants-in addition to distributing seeds.

Various archeological works show that, very probably the very ancient destruction of the large wild indigenous herbivores of Australia broke natural cycles in enormous non-arid areas but with modest rainfall transforming them into desert. Other work strongly suggests that a high proportion of the immense tundras of the far north of the northern hemisphere result from the degradation of steppes, which are much more productive, the cause of which would also be a break in natural cycles between vegetation and large herbivores due to of the extermination, before the end of prehistory, of very large wild herbivores (Mammoths and Woolly Rhinoceros) as well as the elimination over vast areas of other smaller species, such as the Musk Ox. In regions that are aridified although less or, simply with very degraded soils by unsuitable agricultural practices or/and hydrology ruined by brutal bulldozing management of streams, rivers, wetlands, the return of the Beaver in non-tropical Eurasia (until now mainly in Europe) or that of the twin species in North America was enough for an impressive restoration. On KZfaq see for example kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aZmcqLaV1ZvRmoE.html, kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ob-Kqt132MvXhqM.html or type "arid zone restoration by beaver". But never forget that "Nothing in Biology Makes Sense Except in the Light of Evolution" (Dobzhansky, 1973) ; this is the result of several million years of co-evolution. On the contrary, the introduction around 1945 of the Beaver of North America in the south of Chile and Argentina, where this species is exotic totally exotic, without this past of co-evolution was the origin of an ecological catastrophe, as well as many other introductions , such as that of the Rabbit in Australia. Effects of a mentality that remained that of the 19th century, on the basis of knowledge in ecology then embryonic or completely absent.

The most powerful nation in the history of the world,” the president told Scott Pelley in a 60 Minutes interview set to air on Sunday night. “We can take care of both of these and still maintain our overall international defence. We have the capacity to do this and we have an obligation to, we are the “essential nation” to paraphrase the former Secretary of State. And if don’t then who does?” - The Independent. Oct 2023.

It takes a strong community of like minded people to do a thing like this, I'm not from Ethiopia but as an african, what I can say it is from ancient times till now most families in the interiors of africa live only on what they plant and harvest every year, so it is something that is ingrained in them so when someone comes from the outside world to help we come together as a community to make it happen. It is about the community not just me it is us, that is the mindset. In the western world it is about investing and running after the next new technology so it is going to be hard to do.

That's very true. It was the decimation of beaver populations for their fur that led the US southwest to be the desert it currently is. This was done by white fur-trappers well before the rest of the whites arrived, so when they got there, they thought it had always been as lifeless as they found it. They would have been amazed to see the region just 150 years earlier, when every arroyo and wash was green all year round.

This is a wonderful simple and natural solution to restore nature , do sustainable , small- scale farming , feed people locally . The problem with modern life is progress for progress' sake , and wrong economic models which never are based or measured on responsibility , accountability , ethics , in regard to the environment , wildlife , people . This simple solution shown here with perma- culture and plain community muscle- power , works , yet needs to include wildlife also for the balance of the natural world . Without true nature we all cannot survive . All species have a place on our planet , and there needs to be a healthy and sustainable ratio of people to land , of farming and! wild areas . We cannot just make equations based solely on humankind . Wildlife has an overall equal role so we can survive together , which means all species . No future without respect for , and inclusion of , the natural world and wildlife . Great video ! Thank you ! I hope that more people in all countries go no - tech , and re- discover the simple life , and re- connect to nature with simple muscle- power and community efforts . I do believe that we in the Western world have surpassed the point of " plenty " , and need to find our way back = forward , to " less is more " , " simpler is more " , in view of destruction of our planet and endless trash , poisons . Consumption , gross domestic product , globalization , endless economic output , and such terms of only money - matter- measurements and " development " , without ethics and accountability in all possible ways , have never been sustainable from the very beginning . We need to teach correct economics , which should be ecological- economics . Projects like this here shown from Ethiopia prove that high- tech is not the answer , and we can see great results with no- cost , easy efforts . Cruel animal experiments in medicine / science , cruel " factory farming " with cages , feed lots , corn- fed cows instead of natural grass , and many , many other areas of present- day economics , are wrong economics that need to be addressed and corrected . Without ethical , sustainable , basic and simple " clean " living , no future . I do not know if by restoring at least half of every single unique region in every country , our planet could be helped to a more balanced and survivable climate , but any progress in this direction would be more helpful than continuing with ignorance and no conscience . Start gardening today ! Respect and include wildlife !

Outstanding. This very interesting video shows once again that financial aid from rich countries to Africa should be focused on the benefit of such concrete local achievements and no longer by subsidizing corrupt governments diverting enormous sums into clientelist policies that do not improve in no way the situation.

But you need trees on the hillsides and punctuated throughout the landscape because they act as water storage batteries that store water and release it slowly throughout the dry seasons.

Great opportunity for many African countries to come to the fore. Ethiopia is the land of deep ancestry for most of us, and so wish it well.

Incredible, I didn't know it was even possible to restore the landscape to this extent. I'm wondering if it could make a difference for climate change if this would be done on a global scale.

"It's embarrassingly simple but I'm not ashamed because it works" that's a good life philosophy. That and the fact that the communities got together and decide what they themselves wanted to do to improve their lives, only then got they experts to advise the how to do it. Rather than outsiders telling them what should be done. People hate being told by outsiders what to do, change has to come from within.
