Elephant Protection 

Mali, Niger and the northern border region of Burkina Faso are some of the most lawless and remote on the planet - with traffickers of arms, drugs, women - islamic jihadists and others roam undeterred.  

 

It is also home to just over 300 elephants  - reportedly the descendants of the elephants which Hannibal used to cross the Alps and attack the Romans.  

​

We will have aviation assets and will work with local non-governmental organizations to support the protection of these, and other wild animals.

Soil Conditioning &

Crop Selection

The soil along the Niger River has been depleted of nutrients and importing chemical fertilizers is impracticable due to the cost and eventual damage to the environment. There is no use of composting and crop selection is extremely limited. Traditional medicines, cosmetics, and superfoods (moringa)

do grow well here. We will fix the soil and grow the plants!
