In pictures: Mali's mangos
New markets

Mali, like every country in West Africa, has been affected by the global rise in food prices, as it is dependent on imports for almost 70% of its basic goods.

Small-scale farmers clearly have an important role to play in helping to make the country more self-sufficient in food.

This week the women of the co-operative have a stall for the first time at the Bamako Agricultural Fair – hoping to find new markets for their products.
