Abstract
Prosopis and the challenge itis posing has become a serious issue in most IGAD countries, affecting the livelihoods of farmers, agro-pastoral and pastoral communities. It has taken over farmland, browse and pasture, as well as reduced the water supply for people and for livestock in affected areas. Some governments have opted for expensive physical eradication methods which, however, are not proving effective. Others are trying alternative approaches which consider Prosopis an underutilised resource, rather than just an ecological menace.
