Santiago Island, Cape Verde
Donkeys carrying maize, sweetcorn, water, persons and so on
Donkeys and cattle (oxen, cows, pigs, goats) they are animal with an big importance in cape verde farm work. Small but very fast, the donkeys are used to carry maize, sweetcorn (and other agricultural products), water and persons.
“Farming, the main economic activity, is severely limited by the small annual rainfall and extensive soil erosion; about 90% of the country's food must be imported. Cape Verde has considerable underground reserves of water, but extraction has proved too costly. The main crops are bananas, corn, beans, sweet potatoes, coffee, tomatoes, peanuts, and sugarcane. Goats, hogs, cattle, and sheep are raised. Tuna and lobster are the main catches of a small but potentially rich fishing industry. Salt is extracted and there are unexploited gypsum deposits. "
