Small-scaled, cotton based agriculture, progressively fails to fulfill sustainable development, mainly due to economic and technical constraints. DMC appears to be more suitable to fulfil the three main componants of sustainable development in relation with agriculture. Shifting from conventionnal agriculture is neccessary and must be accompanied by both scientific and institutional community. Especially within small-scale agriculture with little alternatives.
Is conventional small-scale cotton-based agriculture sustainable in West and Central Africa?
