En Afrique, 45% du territoire est situé dans des régions où l’agriculture pluviale est fragilisée par les sécheresses récurrentes. Au Burkina Faso, la dégradation des sols peut être limitée grâce à la technique du Zaï, technique manuelle traditionnelle très exigeante en main d’œuvre (300h/ha). La mécanisation de l'opération permet de passer à 40h/ha. L’amélioration de la technique touche aujourd’hui plusieurs centaines de fermes et d’artisans dans une vingtaine de villages du nord du Burkina Faso.
