WANZA DJOUMA COULIBALY
FARMER FROM TOUSSIANA, BURKINA FASO
Chemicals lead to diseases. That's why I'm an organic farmer.
"Sometimes our harvest is not enough to cover our own food needs. But you have to look at the positive: as a farmer, you are mostly independent," says Wanza Djouma Coulibaly. She currently works about 10 hectares of land, which is too little, according to her. "I want to become a big mango and cashew producer in the region. And all organic! Growing fruits and nuts organically is better for the environment and our own health. In fact, if I could do any other job, I would become an agronomist!"
Background
Cashews without detours
We process our cashews where they grow: in Burkina Faso. Unfortunately, this is a rarity in the global trade in these tasty kernels.
