1 ha of additional arable land for Ngembe

During the project trip in the fall of 2022, we were able to visit the village of Ngembe, among other places. Here, a well with a water tower has been built in recent years by our partner organization Water for Senegal and surrounding fields have been planted with drip irrigation.

The cultivation of the fields works so well thanks to the dedicated villagers that TOOLS FOR LIFE financed the development of another hectare of cultivated land with drip irrigation in the amount of 5,000 €. In addition to relocating the irrigation system, the well was also extended and a new water tower was built. This now pumps 12 m ³ of water per hour.

On the hectare of farmland are already grown peppers , pimento , lettuce and eggplant.
