This is inextricably linked to the traditional practice of shifting cultivation, motivated largely by farmers' struggle to acquire more arable farmland to meet the needs of their rapidly growing families. The immediate consequence is acute water shortages, with obvious health and economic implications. Agro-forestry and other soil management techniques are subtly proposed as practical measures to effectively address the issue of shifting cultivation and the associated problem of encroachment into the delicate water catchments. 606 $aTheater$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01149217 606 $aDomestic drama$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00896600 606 $aDomestic drama 606 $aTheater$zCameroon 607 $aCameroon$2fast 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aTheater. 615 0$aDomestic drama. 615 0$aDomestic drama. 615 0$aTheater 700 $aInyang$b Ekpe$f1963-$0888608 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456531503321 996 $aThe Hill Barbers$92571091 997 $aUNINA
