Crafted in a colourful, razor-sharp blend of poetry and prose, The
Hill Barbers depicts the wanton destruction of water catchments in
most communities in Africa. This is inextricably linked to the
traditional practice of shifting cultivation, motivated largely by
farmers' struggle to acquire more arable farmland to meet the needs
of their rapidly growing families. The immediate consequence is
acute water shortages, with obvious health and economic
implications. Agro-forestry and other soil management techniques
are subtly proposed as practical measures to effectively address
the issue of shifting cultivation and the associated problem of
encroachment into the delicate water catchments.
