Soil Fertility



Soil fertility has become an issue with continuous effects that will forever leave it's impression on the continent of Africa as a whole, as well as the individual members of each country within the land. With the ever growing and strengthening market of oil in Africa, the land has come to a breaking point. Several African businesses were based mainly on being able to live off the land. Yet with oil being in the picture, these market fields have become obsolete due to the lack of quality to produce.


With the land in chaos, farmers can't grow crops, fishers can't fish because the fish can't survive within the land, and everything in between is left to rot. Due to this discrepancy in the land, everything has been left in an irreversible state of destruction. Oil has done more than put money in the pockets of corrupt military and political officials, but it has further deepened the despair of the African people as a whole.

What can be done to save this land? Better yet, at this point would there be a point to attempt it? I have as many answers as you, yet just as many answers. Sorry!
