For some time to come the poorer countries of the world will have to rely on agriculture to raise their living standards and supply the capital they need to create industries. Agricultural production must therefore be increased. This requires tractors, fertilizers, new and better seeds, vast irrigation schemes, land reforms.

Headline Darfur Women at Community-Run SAFE Centre

Caption Description Women in Sharga, North Darfur, prepare food at the village’s SAFE Centre during a visit from a delegation of European Union ambassadors.
SAFE is a locally-run community project promoted by the World Food Programme (WFP) in which participants produce fuel-efficient stoves for themselves and to sell at market. The stoves reduce the consumption of firewood by about 30% and, as a result, the number of times women must fetch wood. The centre also produces natural firebrick and plant seedlings, maintains an orchard of gum arabic trees, and organizes training for illiterate women.
