COULIBALY SALAMATA ELISABETH

FARMER FROM TAGA, BURKINA FASO

If I had more land, I would raise bees.

"If I had to change my profession, I would become a poultry farmer," says Coulibaly Salamata Elisabeth. "But growing cashew nuts has a promising future." The farmer enjoys tending her trees and ploughing fields, she says. "However, I would like help enrich my land with as many crops as possible. Then I would plant mango trees, for example, and increase my cashew production. Because I have eight children and that's a lot of mouths to feed."
