Dans les zones de savanes d'Afrique subsaharienne, systèmes polyculture-élevage sont dominants et l'association entre l'agriculture l'élevage ne cesse progresser. Cette évolution contribue-t-elle à intensifier durablement la production agricole dans exploitations ? Pour répondre cette question, l'étude compare selon le niveau d'association : caractéristiques, trajectoires, profils d'intensification des indicateurs durabilité d'exploitations familiales l'Ouest du Burkina Faso Nord-Cameroun,...

This study aimed to examine the correlations between agroecological status of farms and their viability in agro-sylvo-pastoral systems located savannah areas West Africa. The methodology is based on farm surveys (to assess status) farmers' focus group discussions at level). Agroecological was established by considering 15 agricultural practices: 4 by-products recycling; soil protection; industrial inputs limitation; 2 smart use natural resources; 1 cropping diversification; An (Ae) scoring...

Abstract In order to conserve soil fertility and produce enough organic fertilizer forage, farmers must manage efficiently the crop residues animal waste produced on farm. This article characterizes local technical knowledge diversity of practices, analyzes efficiency these practices. An agricultural survey was carried out in 2006 for villages southern Mali. Farmers' characterized beforehand by an original method. Crop management as well production use fertilizer, were followed measured. The...

Abstract In Western Africa, agro-sylvo-pastoral systems are dominant and food demand is booming. To meet this demand, many farmers intensify the production with industrial inputs (mineral fertilizers, feeds, pesticides, herbicides). However, price of these rocketing. face issue, some reconsider crops, livestock, tree synergies by-product recycling to increase their sustainably at a lower cost. The study aimed characterize diversity Koumbia’s farming assess systems’ technical performance in...

In Sudano-Sahelian Africa, Fulani pastoralists who settled down massively in less densely populated zones during the 1970s and 1980s have recently increased mobility of their herds response to an extension cropping areas, a shortage pasture problems resulting from crop damage by cattle. Today, they annually exploit set areas located both near far dwellings that constitutes ‘herding territory’. This article aims clarify how conceive, organize manage herding territory discuss future...

La co-conception de systèmes agricoles innovants est une piste prometteuse pour répondre au défi l'innovation, notamment les exploitations familiales africaines confrontées à multiples changements.

Over the past 30 years, a large number of farmers and herders have moved into southern part Sudano-Sahelian region in search arable land pastures. Today, human population pressure is restricting amount quality pastures available to herds forcing continually cultivate their fields without setting aside fallow areas, leading decreased soil fertility. The traditional use crop residues by (free grazing) (organic manure) as well crop-livestock integration models promoted date proved ineffective...

Face au défi majeur de la croissance démographique mondiale, le secteur agricole se doit concilier une augmentation production alimentaire et diminution son impact environnemental. L’intégration agriculture-élevage (IAE) mise en œuvre dans les exploitations familiales mixtes à faible niveau d’intrants peut être un moyen d’y parvenir. L’un des grands principes l’IAE est l’utilisation ressources produites par différents ateliers l’exploitation pour conduite autres ateliers. L’IAE construit...
