A recent Mongabay article highlights the potential of "forgotten" food crops in sub-Saharan Africa to enhance climate resilience and nutrition. The research identified 52 underutilized crops, such as the spider plant, that are more resilient to climate change and nutritionally superior to staples like maize and rice. These crops could thrive under future climate conditions, addressing both food security and dietary diversity. Initiatives are already underway to introduce these crops to local diets, promoting agroecology and sustainable food systems. The study emphasizes that these forgotten foods are not only nutritionally dense but also culturally significant, offering a connection to indigenous knowledge and traditions. Farmers and researchers are working together to revive and promote these crops, with efforts including seed banks, educational programs, and community-led projects. By integrating these crops into modern agricultural practices, there is potential to improve livelihoods, support biodiversity, and build more resilient food systems in the face of climate change.
