Linguère :la longue pause pluviométrique constitue une psychose chez les éleveurs et les agri

The long rainfall break observed in the sylvo-pastoral zone worries farmers and livestock breeders who no longer know where to turn.

In fact, the sky has not opened its floodgates on the Djoloff for more than two weeks.

Crops that were just beginning to emerge from the ground are turning yellow and wilting right now due to lack of water.

Crops are also threatened, according to an agent of the Plant Protection Directorate who requested anonymity.

The grass is starting to turn yellow in several areas of Djoloff such as Téssékré, Kamb, Mboula, Boulal, Dahra, among others due to the lack of water. Crops are also threatened but there is still hope if we rely on a source close to the Linguère agriculture department.

The livestock is very tired because the lack of water observed in a large part of Djoloff has meant that the grass is not always sufficiently developed to feed the cattle. As a result, herders are forced to migrate with their livestock to other greener areas.
