| Moringa Plant |
Moringa olifera, besides meeting humans and animals nutritional needs, as has been studied by international medical researchers, it can cure 200 different diseases, says Mr. Habte Arefayne, General Manager of Diamond Agro Industry.
Taking its myriad uses in nutritional and medicinal sectors inconsideration and as it grows best in arid conditions and a drought-tolerant plant, the investment is recommendable, he added. Moringa can be cultivated in most of Eritrea’s arable land, hence if the investment has taken seriously, Eritrea can have a share in the exportation of Moringa products to regional and international markets, he notes.

The Earth has Plenty of Resources; the Question is How to Make Use of It
Efrem Habtetsion, Aug 4, 2009 - 9:24pm
Two things are required for Eritrea to free itself from the prevailing economic problem: great effort and responsibility. We should work with every potential to compensate for what is lost during decades of colonial period. The country owes its people a lot.
Agricultural investment is one of our basic and priority tasks. The main experience acquired in the past stages of agricultural sectors shows that our farming system needs to change. Problems are unavoidable that the society still acquires limited knowledge in farming. Though people have experienced farming for most of their life time, life is still from hand to mouth.
