Assessing land restoration potential in semi-arid lands of Kenya
Artículos de revistas y librosOctubre, 2018África oriental, KenyaDrylands cover over 40% of the earth's surface and support over 2 billion people, globally (Millennium Ecosystem Assessment, 2005).

Over the last several decades, an increasing and more sedentary human population has resulted in more pressure on these lands, and an expansion of agricultural production into marginal dryland areas that were traditionally rangelands.
