YABILE JEANNE OUATTARA
FARMER FROM TOUSSIANA, BURKINA FASO
I grow cashews for myself as well as for my buyers.
Yabile Jeanne Ouattara grows cashews on four hectares of land. When the harvest season begins, she can count on the help of her family - her husband and four children. She also hires extra harvest workers for the season. "Farming is my passion," says Jeanne. "I could never do any other job than farming. I love tending the fields." But she also thinks there's room for improvement. "I'd like to optimise my cashew trees so that we can harvest more."
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.
