Comment on former land cover
The project has threatened to displace them from their agricultural lands where they grow rice, maize, and other crops, their grazing lands where they graze their animals, their forests where they get their firewood and collect wild vegetables and herbs, and also their ceremonial lands where they worship their gods and ancestors. With the loss of their lands, they fear they will not be able to pass on their knowledge to future generations.
