Learn moreAt Tropical Farming Solutions, we prioritize biodiversity conservation and soil fertility in agriculture. To minimize risks to rare and undiscovered plant species, we focus on farming fallow land in the Sahel rather than clearing intact bushland. Where land clearing is unavoidable, it is carried out responsibly and in line with ecological best practices, followed by conservation agriculture, regenerative methods, and agroforestry to maintain long-term soil health. Despite ongoing discoveries of new tree species along The Gambia’s West Coast and in Senegal’s Casamance region, Senegambia remains botanically under-explored. To support conservation, we promote responsible ecotourism and organize botanical excursions and bird safaris in partnership with Gambia Wildlife & Cultural Tours, while supporting the Gambia Geographic Explorers Club. By integrating sustainable land use, nature-based tourism, and academic research, we help protect rare species and encourage the documentation of new ones, including during necessary land clearing activities.
Tropical Farming Solutions exclusively promotes the Technik-Plus' Carbon-Farming-Africa technology (HC+CO₂ exhaust emissions-farming) in the ECOWAS sub-region.
Tropical Farming Solutions further collaborates with internationally renowned companies specialising in agricultural solutions for tropical regions to complement the range of technologies required:
We have a cooperation in Senegal with Carlo Baroni of BarcAgro for irrigation and agricultural technologies from Italy, and with Richard Belcher of SenSa Agri for pivots, fencing, and the construction of hangars.

Senegambia, comprising Senegal and The Gambia, is known for its rich birdlife, diverse landscapes, and unique wildlife. Shaped by centuries of trade, migration, and colonial history, the region remains closely connected through culture and people. Its ecosystems range from Sahelian savannas and riverine forests to coastal wetlands and mangroves. Key wildlife areas include Nikolo Koba and the River Gambia National Park, home to chimpanzees. The Gambian West Coast, Saloum Delta, and Somone Lagoon support mangroves and abundant birdlife, making the region a haven for conservation and ecotourism.
