Report on mission to Botswana

Gillier Pierre. 1979. Report on mission to Botswana. Paris : GERDAT, 7 p.

Résumé : The object of this preparatory mission was to appraise the problem of ground nut growing in Botswana and to find out what the country's real needs are. Specific information was required concerning seed selection, soil quality, agricultural techniques etc., to see what could be proposed for the 1979-1980 campaign and for future expansion of our cooperation. This was the guiding spirit behind the mission which took place from April 25th to May 11th 1979. Speaking quite objectively, this was too late to enable examination of growing plants, but, given the exceptional 1978-79 campaign, an earlier visit would not have resulted in better information anyway. We should add that the number, quality and diversity of the individuals we met, as well as the field visits, enabled us to get a good grip on the problems detailed below.
