Burkina Faso Environment Flooding Bund low rock walls built to prevent soil erosion by flash floods. Stones are placed along the contours on gentle slopes. Sometimes the bunds are reinforced by planting tough grasses along the lines. The stones and grass encourage rain water to infiltrate the soil and reduce the amount of rain water that is lost by run-off. Any soil that has been eroded by run-off is trapped by the bund. Topsoil and organic matter e.g. leaf litter is deposited here.Bunds are placed 10 to 25 metres apartAfrican Western Africa Ecology Entorno Environmental Green Issues Environnement

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the innovative approach taken by Burkina Faso to combat soil erosion caused by flash floods. The image showcases the intricate network of low rock walls, known as bunds, strategically built along gentle slopes in order to prevent further damage to the environment. These bunds are reinforced with tough grasses planted along their contours, creating a natural barrier that encourages rainwater infiltration and reduces runoff. The stones and grass depicted in this photograph play a crucial role in preserving the region's delicate ecosystem. By guiding rainwater into the soil instead of allowing it to wash away valuable nutrients, these measures help maintain healthy vegetation growth and prevent topsoil erosion. Additionally, any eroded soil is effectively trapped within the bunds, ensuring that vital organic matter such as leaf litter is deposited back onto the land. Mark Newham's expertly captured image not only highlights Burkina Faso's commitment to sustainable farming practices but also serves as a reminder of our collective responsibility towards environmental conservation. It showcases how simple yet effective solutions can be implemented to mitigate ecological challenges faced by communities across Western Africa
