| Milking camels.
A mini modern dairy plant set up privately guarantees the survival of many
traditional herdsmen in Mauritania. This is one of the few, if not the
only, plant that pasturizes camel (dromedary) milk and produces various
types of camel's cheese. The project provides technical assistance and
subsidizes the machinery needed for pasturization and cheese making. Photo
