How Marula oil helps fight deforestation in Madagascar?
Deforestation is one of the main threats facing our environment today. Every year, millions of hectares of forests are destroyed, leading to the loss of biodiversity, disruption of ecosystems and the release of large amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Faced with this environmental crisis, numerous initiatives are emerging to combat this scourge, and among them, the responsible production of Marula oil is proving to be a promising solution.
What is the impact of Marula oil on deforestation?
This oil has exceptional properties for skin and hair. It is extracted from the nuts of the Marula tree, a tree native to sub-Saharan Africa.
The impact of Marula oil on deforestation lies in its sustainable economic model. Unlike other crops that encourage the destruction of forests, the harvest of Marula nuts is done without cutting down the trees. The fruits fall naturally to the ground and are collected by residents of the regions where these trees grow. This non-destructive harvesting practice helps preserve forest ecosystems while providing a source of income for local populations.
Marula oil is also an effective way to valorize forests for their economic potential, other than that of logging. By offering a viable alternative to cutting down trees for timber or agriculture, Marula oil encourages the conservation of forests as a renewable resource and thus contributes to the preservation of biodiversity and the fight against change. climatic.
