Résumé
Large development projects are in progress in the more important river basins of Africa. Renovation attempts in these areas are, for the most part, re-makes of an idea which came to Africa with the Europeans. The development of the Senegal river basin is an example of this.Whether now or in the colonial era, the objectives of making the Senegal river basin a prosperous beachhead, and one of the sub-regional breadbaskets have remained constant as have the strategies involved although producing different outcomes which provide rich lessons for the present and the future. Thus, we can analyse the attempt at agricultural colonisation, started in Senegal by baron Roger with the creation in 1822, of an experimental garden on the present site of the district of Richard Toll.In the light of experience of agricultural colonisation of the delta, we can understand some of the present problems of the development of the reiver valley.
