S. G. Vias Franck | E. Vall | Y. Ibrahim | B. Faye
Camel use for draft and carting was developed out of draft practices observed in rural zones of Subsaharan Africa. The camel represents the ultimate stage of rural intensification. Its use was promoted because it is an answer to sustainable development adapted to available resources in Niger. The present communication presents the tools for camel draft developed by the project ‘Technical and institutional strengthening of the camel subsector’. Then are described technical specifications for each draft material. Finally, the strategy adopted to popularize draft camel power is presented.
