"If we can find out how these so-called primitives made this soil," reckons Van Roosmalen, "we can use it as an alternative to destructive slash-and-burn agriculture." Unfortunately, since the river tribes that knew the secret were all wiped out by European raiding parties 500 years ago, the scientist must start from scratch...
