The idea, according to him, “is to include farmers in a dynamic of being able to cultivate during the winter period as well as in the dry season”. “Without this approach, it will be very difficult to successfully relaunch Sonacos,” he thinks. Not without pointing out that “there are many development projects in the industrial field for which the only obstacle to the economic development of the country is found in the process”. According to Dr Macoumba Diouf, “the city of Saloum can be divided into two parts (the city and the rural world)”.
It is enough, he explains, to strengthen the municipalities of the rural world as well as the city to boost the economy. “Once in the national assembly, I will propose a bill “one municipality, one billion” to the ministers of local authorities and finance to boost the economy each year. This only represents 8.5% of the budget estimated at more than 7,000 billion FCFA. This bill, if validated, will ensure equitable territorial development. It is only through this method with the establishment of viable territorial centers that will put the country on the path to sustainable development,” he maintained.
