...the idea is to plant millions of trees on a strip of land about 8,000km long and 15km wide crossing the African continent from Senegal to Djibouti. Poster Comment: SEE MAP. During the Maunder Minimum, regions of north Africa were able to grow more food as they received more rain than normally. We just entered a Grand Solar Minimum. Those trees will help.

I realize the Sahara is retreating in the south but isn't planting trees premature until more rain arrives?
More rain and even snow have arrived.
What little I know about planting trees is that the first year they need plenty of water. The Israelis were able to do it but it took a lot of effort and recycled water. Would think before trees could take hold there would first have to be grassland.
Trees and grasslands have the same soil biology which is fungal dominant vs bacterial dominant for most crops. But you can plant seeds with soil biology. I would. I would also soak seeds for 24 hours so they have enough water to germinate. One of the best Ag consultants I know recommends that you soak seeds for 24 hours in clean water with Manganese, Molybdenum, Zinc, Copper and Boron.
Do you know an Ag supplier who has access to the solutions that contain the minerals you mention? Just asking. And then how do you convince the farmers to use it when they have been doing the chemical thing which has depleted the soils of nutrients? ;)

Advancing Eco Ag channel on YouTube. Big Ag farmers will go bankrupt. They buy fertilizers and pesticides. Healthy crops need neither one.
