Why not plant tropical fruit trees in Africa ?
African countries seem to always face food and water scarcity , so I was thinking that will planting of tropical fruit trees growing in Indian subcontinent and which can survive in arid areas , help the people of Africa.
These trees bear fruit and should help reduce the impact of food scarcity in this region.
What do you think ?
I was thinking of trees like tamarind, berries (bor), jamun etc.
