Well, didn't get to write anything last night, so just real brief. I will be in Himo part of the day, to talk to some specialist about soil erosion in the area. Hopefully I will also be able to talk to an agricultural officer tomorrow. They are usually the ones who make people implement some soil conservation measures.
I saw a striking difference last week between two fields and the people I was travelling with said they belonged to the same person. I was curious why the same person would have one very good field and one very bad one. I asked to go there and we talked to the owner. Turned out only the good one was hers and she had talked to an agricultural officer ten years ago. The neighbour is one of those that live somewhere completely different. This is common in this area and those people have not been interested in soil conservation too much or don't have time.
I also went up in to the mountains on Sunday with my crappy bike and saw the "rural" sprawl. People cut down forests and plant mostly banana.
