Rainforest Saver Foundation (UK, SC039007) Browse events

YTD Raised: £0.00

Are you concerned about the destruction of tropical rainforests? Or is poverty what matters most? Rainforest Saver saves rainforest and alleviates poverty with one great solution: we help slash and burn farmers to farm in a way that makes it unnecessary for them to keep burning the rainforest, while getting better crops year after year after year. Go to  to support Charles Barber's original and interesting Personal Challenge for us. Cameroon farmer's children, Melanie and Benjamin. When you donate to Rainforest Saver you help children like these to have a better, healthier life, while saving the rainforest that both they and we need.  When population densities weresmall slash and burn worked reasonably well. But now there are over 200 million such families worldwide. They are destroying more forest than logging or cattle ranching, or anything else, while they themselves remain very poor. The richness of the rainforest is in the trees, not the soil. When the trees are gone the soil quickly becomes infertile, and the farmers have to keep burning more forest to survive. The forest has no time to regenerate, and repeatedly cultivated rainforest land can turn into desert. However the farmers in these regions rely on the land to survive. The only solution is to find a better way of farming.     Land turned to desert by repeated slash and burn, and fertile Inga cultivation. (Photos Trees for the Future and FUPNAPIB) Rainforest Saver promotes a well-tried and tested better way of farming, called Inga alley cropping. It maintains and improves the fertility of the soil, so the farmer can cultivate the same plot indefinitely without burning more forest, and he gets more crops. Benefits of Inga alley cropping Restores degraded land Provides more food Works year after year Provides income for the farmers Prevents erosion Preserves rainforest Provides firewood No chemicals, so debt free farming In 2010 Mrs. Mendo Antoinette is very happy to get Inga seedlings to start her Inga alley plot, and in 2012, her well cared for plot has healthy maize growing between rows of Inga trees. (Photos GastonBityo Delor, 2012)               She says ' Today I can say I am the most happy woman in Cameroon,  I am the first woman to be decorated by the Cameroon Government  because of Inga. I am also the first farmer whose Inga plot has been pruned and maize already sown.'    Dr. Valle teaching sustainable farming and land management, including the Inga system, to rural high school teachers at Funavid, so they can teach the students.
