- In Mauritania, communities work hand in hand to make their land fertile again. A traditional technique called "half-moons" is used to reduce water runoff and trap the scarce rain inside the half-moons, thereby increasing water infiltration and improving food and fodder production.
Planting trees all over can help create a good area for agriculture... The trees will help keep the temperature pleasant for livestock also.
Slowly but surely. Do not give up. 👍🏽
What a great man And great choice of words for his education, it is really humbling to share nationality with such a man.
a man who is the pillar and protector of his family, a man of dignity .
Working together anything can be accomplish. This is good news to hear coming out of Mauritania.
Nature is just begging us for a chance... What will it take for us to finally start to undo all the damage we have done?
Who has done? What damage? I see a semi arid local climate.
@@hamish1309 these areas were a lot greener before the old civilizations overgrazed the land.
@@hamish1309it's semi-arid due to cutting down all the trees and killing the brush with grazing and browsing.
Restoring trees and bushes will bring more water to the region.
Do what you can in your own yard, and your town, and support bigger projects as you are able. Share videos like this with others and encourage them to do the same.
So many live only with cupidity
Amazing. Thank you so much.
Traditional farming communities in Korea developed a system called JADAM, which has been proven to be used to make the land more alive. Namely maximizing the use of plants that have certain ingredients that are adapted to local conditions, livestock manure, mineral salt water, and other materials that are easily available nearby, then connected and integrated with the food chain system between plants, animals and humans, including the use of microorganisms. .
I have started applying it to several areas of land that have been damaged, because the humus has been lost due to mining activities on the island of Kalimantan, Indonesia, where the condition of the soil is very similar to the condition of dry desert soil and is almost rocky.
This effort is showing very good results and if this is tried to be applied on the African continent and other desert lands, it seems that it will slowly improve naturally and bring benefits that move very quickly.
Greetings from me in Indonesia and it would be very good if the JADAM system which was pioneered by agricultural experts in Korea is implemented.
Please see this method which has been widely broadcast on many TH-cam channels, as a reference.
Good luck and greetings to a healthy and green earth.
They need to reduce tillage and instead incorporate covercrops and graze as a village, not as individual households, to improve the surrounding vegetation. Regenerative practices begin with reducing tillage, and include water structures when necessary.
Except that tillage has to be done prescriptively. Meaning, the soil is so compacted that they have to mechanically move that soil and incorporate some fertilizer. Whether that is natural compost or not, it depends on availability and the particular situation. Till, incorporate manure/compost, and follow the regenerative principles.

Such a pretty country!🇲🇷🇲🇷
If every one was greatful like him

Great !
The people of Africa can survive and thrive with the right tools and simple equipment. What they don't need is international organisations lecturing them or supplying them with weapons and ammunition.
Love it
Great project, if do it applying agroforestry will be even more self-sustainable.
Cool 👍
Has there been tracking of depth of aquifer as measured at wells, before and after projects? I guess my question is whether the retained water affects soil moisture below depth of crop roots. Presumably it would take at least several years to see a noticeable difference, if at all. Does someone take up the task of measuring precipitation on a systematic basis?
There's a dam that was rebuilt... this is all greenwashing a very old concept that was already at play in the region.
Great
Real men fighting for their future! But I could help them a lot, with my knowledge to do more...I love that ecologic living people and that enviroment.
Ayúdales...
That soil is so compacted. Does it really have to reach that point for people to do something about it? Must it come to the point of pain?
Pero ¿qué gente? Ellos no pueden hacer otra cosa.
Here are some of the keystone animal species that contribute to the health of the Sahel region:
Addax: The Addax is a critically endangered antelope species known for its distinctive spiraled horns.
Dama Gazelle: One of the largest gazelle species, recognized for its elongated and slender horns.
Sahel Gazelle: Another important gazelle species in the region.
West African Lion: Majestic and resilient, the lion plays a vital role in maintaining ecological balance.
African Elephant: Despite the challenges, elephants inhabit the Sahel and contribute to its biodiversity.
Secretary Bird: This unique bird species also plays a role in the ecosystem.
These animals have adapted to the Sahel’s harsh conditions, and protecting their habitats is essential for their survival. Addressing threats such as habitat loss, poaching, and human-wildlife conflict is crucial to maintaining a healthy Sahel ecosystem 1. 🦁🌿🌍
Pero ellos ya lo saben... conviven con ellos pero tb tienen que cultivar para alimentarse.
Wow
Alhamdulillah
Well will this project happen in australia and middle east?
There are already permaculture projects in Australia.
The key to rain is tithing. Please read in the book of Malachi chapter 3 verse 10.
Thank you, have a nice week!
Get a brain, idiot. Prayer didn't work for the Dust Bowl Okies. Knowledge is found in science textbooks, not religious scripture.
Here I thought, glewing your hands to the road was the only way forward.

How do the holes retain water 💧 🤔. Does the compacted soil underneath the freshly dug hole retain the water. Plants evaporate lots of water through their leaves 🍃. I have to water my 300 hydroponic leafy greens with 40 gallons of water each week, it seems.
They plant species that are native to the Sahel they don’t need as much water
В России много земли чернозём кругом реки озёра, часто дожди, огромные сугробы. Но люди не хотят работать на земле. В городе много работы, хорошие зарплаты, развлекательные центры.рестораны, клубы и прочее
Too short. Please make video with more information, the progress, the update. Thank you
Прошло 3 года ... Как проживает Мустафа Сюлеймани ??? ...
If they space the half moons closer together they'll increase their volume
Cloud seeding method involves
Россия . У меня два дома, много земли в собственности Но, я ничего не хочу сажать из овощей,фруктов, нет желания. посаженны только цветы. Всё что нужно, я могу купить в магазине, все стоит дёшево

They have hundreds of native edible and delicious fruit trees and barry bushes so if there not planting native stuff its not economically sustainable.
Poor people, how difficult their lives are.These people deserve a better life
Alhamdulillah = praise God. he said it repeatedly & they choose to omit from the caption.
อยากให้มีแหล่งน้ำและอาหารและสัตว์เลี้ยง
What sucks about this, is the people suffering more from the environment and doing more for the environment are the poor people, while us on the west don’t change at all.
We're the ones paying for the foreign aid, which now includes teaching ecological restoration, which was developed by the West.
Not to rain on your parade but some half moon projects (Niger and two other countries I'm forgetting) are funded by the EU.
Glad to see Idris Elba is doing his bit for the environment.
¿Y tú?
Will this project happen cross European Nations too?
Are any of them semi-arid?
Techniques have to be adjusted to the local climate and issues.
People are reforesting parts of the Scottish highlands.
En Europa HAN SOBREEXPLOTADO LA TIERRA, Y AÚN QUIERES QUE APLIQUEN ESTE SISTEMA...?? 😮😢
We didn't strip all of our land of plants.
Half moons or Taco Bell tacos?
Goats and Sheep are Baahd! Look for species that use to occupy the Forests of the North Central Africa. Keystone species. What would that be?
¿¿Y tb les darán productos...??
When will this project happening in U.S and Mexico?
Arizona had some interesting water retention programs going on. If you keep watching these videos, they may come up in your feed, or you can search them up.
You would think that we could invent a machine to pull behind a tractor to create thousands of these "Half-Moons" along the desert and slowly re-green a large portion of the desert.
Look at the color of their skin, now you know.
@@cheeseflavoredsoda3262yikes dude. You need to go outside for once.
@@handsfortoothpicks I'm right, you're wrong, no matter how much you worship their skin color.
@@cheeseflavoredsoda3262 how am I wrong? For not being a racist POS?
@handsfortoothpicks He isn't wrong. They aren't inventing anything, even with access to Western civilization.
I don't understand how the dam helped.Also, why is it necessary to plow or grow mono-crops? Why are there no trees?
Native trees in those area are naturally short, thin and have few leafs. These half moon design are ancient technique used to preserve as much water during the short rainy season.
Not an expert but I think the dam helps retain water in the area, allowing it to soak into the water table.
¿LOS MONOCULTIVOS DEL PRIMER MUNDO NO TE MOLESTAN? ¿COMERÍAS ÁRBOLES? SUS FRUTOS QUIZÁ PERO ELLOS NECESITAN ALIMENTOS YA, IGUAL QUE TÚ. Y ADEMÁS QUIZÁ HASTA TENDRÁN Q EXPORTAR PARA Q SUBA EL NIVEL D SU PAÍS, O IRÁN EXPLOTADORES EXTRANJEROS A CULTIVAR SUS TIERRAS PARA OTROS...

What are you making all those babies for?
Lives goes on ...I think that family have a better chance to survive the next 100 years than most of us included you.
¿Tú no haces bebés?? Ah sí claro, TÚ PUEDES PQ ESTÁS EN EL PRIMER MUNDO, O ENGAÑAS A LA NATURALEZA...😮😮
@@madelcarmengarciagarcia4523 No - I have no children - too many people - 9 billion.
@@paulsawczyc5019Smart, don't have kids but let these morons keep outbreeding you. That'll be great for the long-term.
They do better than beggar in the street, and drug addict.
That country needs a reform, from a cult that encourages after life instead of building for real life, and progidees will appear, they are seriously good people, poverty the millennial long invasion and uneducation surely suck...
Christianity and Islam both overlook the present.
Ya sabes... no comas ni bebas y pronto llegarás a ESA VIDA DESPUÉS DE LA VIDA q quieres para ellos 😢😢😢
Can't they give them machines to dig? Lol
TE CREES MUY GRACIOSO RIDICULIZANDO A LOS POBRES...😮😢DALES TÚ LAS MÁQUINAS.
@@madelcarmengarciagarcia4523Your translator isn't working. Just quit commenting. You keep looking like an idiot.
Work and improve your own country instead of fleeing somewhere and do nothing for the world
That's what they're doing, if you watch the video.
This is what foreign aid should be doing.
Seguro q hace mucho más q muchos dl primer mundo...
Why half moons? Full moons would produce more food and make twice as much green!
You didn't listen very well. Try again.
Qué ocurrencia... t van a condecorar 😢😮
In 2018 Mauritania imposed the death penalty for blasphemy against Allah.
This is about permaculture.
There is only ONE god most religions tells...so where is the problem? If there is something like god...ok, what anybody should tell against that god? That god has an incrdeble power. Gita says: God creates and destroys the whole universe in the same moment. That is written to get an idea what just the power of a god means, but its only the power...God itself is more than an absolute power, if god exists. ..If they have dead penalty for blasphemy, that could mean they like to kill someone or/and they do not like anybody telling bullshit about a god .
@@maozedung7270les importa más un dios al q no ven q un hermano al q ven... 😮😢
Really appreciate if it's true
Here people think they are greater than Allah...they judge people before Allah... they are not real muslim.
or you could, ya know, not live in regions not meant for sustainable and prosperous human civilizations....?
And move where? Into your house?
Restoring vegetation to an area damaged by deforestation and overgrazing is a lot simpler than moving and settling elsewhere.
@@jturtle5318no t esfuerces en explicárselo... no ve más allá. Allí tendría q haber nacido. ❤❤
Note to Africa: HUMANS are not a keystone species of the African Sahel.
It's better if the native species returned and Humans left or at least were 10 Percent of the current population. That is what is called an acceptable parasitic load on the natural ecosystem.
Have you tried your briliant idea in your own country?
Y tú ¿no parasitas nada? ¿Aceptas q vengan a tu territorio?
Ridiculous
you’re the type of idiot that just love bad news.
Please elaborate how this is ridiculous?
How? Research into these farming methods show they is much more production with the half moon.
Water?
@@ophiuchus992 Short rainy season.
Most of the water actually didn't get absorbed during those heavy rainfall season. Most of them ended up going to the sea. This help retain those water and help them penetrate into the ground hence increasing the amount of groundwater in those area.
Those dry cracked ground are as hard as concrete. When it got wet, it acted similar to concrete, water just slide on top of those dry grounds instead of getting them wet.
Alhamdulillah
