Description

The information provided in this book gives students access to indigenous knowledge that is important, but often neglected, in the school curriculum. This book provides an overview of the development of societies in Africa and how they utilised plants in the wild and then later learnt to cultivate them as they made the transition from pastoralism to farming. It also provides guidance on how to grow and use these plants effectively.
