自80年代初非洲发生震惊全球的特大旱灾以来,许多非洲国家同旱魔进行着生死搏斗。地处撒哈拉大沙漠南沿的尼日尔推广旱季作物,农业取得了令人鼓舞的成就,积累了可供其他非洲国家借鉴的宝贵经验。1984—1986年,尼日尔的旱季作物连续三年获得丰收,产量分别为13万吨,13.8万吨和11.2万吨。 Since the extraordinary drought that hit the earth in Africa in the early 1980s, many African countries have been waging a struggle against the drought. The promotion of dry season crops in Niger, located on the southern edge of the Sahara Desert, has yielded encouraging results and has accumulated valuable lessons that can be borrowed from other African countries. In 1984-1986, the dry season crops in Niger received a bumper harvest for three consecutive years, yielding 130,000 tons, 138,000 tons and 112,000 tons respectively.
