[Biovision Africa Trust @BiovisionAfrica]

Tune in today at 6pm on @citizentvkenya Kenya's Gold Show!
Our Executive Director, Dr. David Amudavi, will be the guest, discussing sustainable management of rangelands.
Do you kow that 70% of Kenya’s land cover is rangeland, and about 25-50% of this area is degraded, sometimes even heavily degraded.
Under the Native PEP (Native Plants for Environment and People) project we try to develop and promote sustainable land management practices that build on the traditional knowledge of the local communities and on novel scientific evidence.

The contribution of fruit trees to climate change mitigation has not been explored because of a lack of allometric equations to quantify their biomass accurately.

This study shares findings from mango and avocado trees.
