Tree planting

My name is Peter, I am a farmer But my farm is close to a catchment area. Sometimes during dry season, I use irrigation to plant some vegetables for sale. But since last year, I never planted any vegetables because there was no water any more. I was invited by our community Development worker at the D.O's office for a seminar on Agro-forestry. Funny enough, I found a solution to my problem after going through the teachings planned by an N.G.O  in our region. I realized on my farm I had 2 big trees that were consuming water, i was advised to cut them down and plant the local trees. They said its good in retaining the water table. I have seen am improvement since those are the trees I planted.
