The narrative follows Australian agronomists Tony and Liz Rinaudo as they confront the challenges of reforestation in the Sahara. After struggling with traditional planting methods, Tony uncovers a groundbreaking approach called Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration (FMNR), which revitalizes degraded landscapes without the need for new trees. This innovative technique has transformed reforestation efforts, particularly in Niger, where farmers have restored over six million hectares of land, significantly increasing their crop yields and income.
