Summary

Schistosomiasis is a flatworm transmitted from freshwater snails to humans in the tropics. In addition to this infectious disease, tropical developing countries are faced with malnutrition. We propose to alter pesticide and compost use to reduce schistosomiasis and maintain or even improve crop production.

Conditions

  • Schistosomiasis

Interventions

OTHER

Bottom-up intervention

Some interventions are bottom-up, where we manipulate the resources of snails and some are top-down, where we manipulate the predators of snails.
