A Guide for Rural Extension Workers in the Sudano-Sahelian Zone
The purpose of this guide is to help farming communities in the sudano-sahelian zone to finance, install and manage waterpoints for their village herds. The guide is written particularly for extensionists working in livestock water projects in this zone. It outlines in detail a method being used by the Dpgt rural develpment and land use project in North Cameroon since 1994, with extensionists working under the auspices of the Cameroon Ministry of Agriculture and the cotton company Sodecoton. This is a programme sponsored by the French agencies Agence française de développement and Fonds français d’aide et de coopération.
