Breakthrough in research on holistic use of prosopis juliflora

VSF Suise a veterinary organisation that works largely with communities to improve their livelihood through livestock have partnered with the university of Nairobi in research on holistic use of prosopis juliflora, a plant that livestock keepers termed as more harmful than useful.
in arid and semi arid areas ,Livestock depend on pasture lands that already have been affected by invasive plants like prosopis juliflora among others which add more pain considering the current shocks of climate change that have degraded expansive rangelands especially in eastern Africa.
Recently the University in collaboration with VSF Suisse ,the county government of Isiolo and Samburu where VSF works have changed the narrative after successful manufacture of livestock feeds and high quality briquettes ,an invention that will support livestock production and also solve the problem of tree felling for charcoal in many areas hence helping in combating effects of climate change.
