evelopment project to turn the savannah regions into a mango production zone. The mango project began in 2009.
Through the UHDP method, farmers are able to plant 674 trees per hectare as opposed to 40 trees in the Southern ecological zone of the country, and the technology produces 2-3 times more fruit per acre than traditional cultivation methods.
The new method, devised in South Africa, also has the benefit of early-fruiting in three years, and farmers can triple their incomes in five years.
