RWANDA & SCARCE SOILS
TERRACED CROPS CLIMB THE SLOPES OF THE VIRUNGA MOUNTAINS IN RWANDA,
CONTINENTAL AFRICA’S MOST DENSELY POPULATED NATION. NEARLY EVERY SPECK OF ARABLE LAND IS TAKEN, SO PEOPLE PUSH INTO PROTECTED FORESTS AND EACH OTHER. LAND SCORCITY CONTRIBUTED, IN A SMALL WAY, TO RWANDA’S GENOCIDE IN 1994 AND STILL STIRS CONFLICT ELSEWHERE .
