Comment on land area
Another source states 300ha, while another states 200ha. At the beginning of the installation, the commune had allocated them 200ha. But a few years later, they were given another 220ha. But the area of 2022 is derived from the mapping on google Earth. According to the village chief, Mounirou Fall, who was at the beginning of the negotiations, the commune allocated 100ha to WAF at the beginning of the installation. According to Mounirou, since the project is working well, as they had also set aside 100ha for the population so that they could also cultivate, the area of the WAF has increased from 100ha to 500ha. The commune added another 400ha.
