Introduction: Sack Gardening, an Anti-desertification Tool

About: Honorary Professor University Ghent

Growing vegetables and fruits in sacks has a growing popularity.  In desertified drylands all these food crops can be grown better than in the poor soils.  Therefore, sack gardening is a splendid anti-desertification tool.  It can be recommended for programmes and projects aiming at reducing famine, hunger, malnutrition and poverty.
