Background: In Burkina Faso, Ficus is one of the largest plant genera. However, its resource availability, populations status and uses which are crucial for conservation species have not been sufficiently documented. This study aims to fill this gap knowledge. Methods: Semi-structured interviews were carried out purposively from August 2021 April 2022 with 240 informants different age categories, ethnic groups sexes across 12 villages in Sudanian zone Faso. Collected information related...

This study aimed to evaluate the role of trees outside forests on agricultural land (TOF-AL) in preserving initial aboveground biomass (AGB) within landscape Mongala province Democratic Republic Congo. In 2024, tree inventories were conducted over four months and lands analyse AGB. The effects artisanal logging charcoal production activities AGB conservation rate considered. indicates that 78.3% encountered large-diameter (diameter at breast height (DBH) ≥ 60 cm). forest areas, accounted for...

Fruit of Ziziphus mauritiana Lam. are widely harvested by rural communities for food and income across West Africa sahelian areas. The species is listed among the high value providing plants in Burkina Faso. However, lack reliable assessment its fruit production one main constraints limiting valorization sustainable management. This study aims to analyze factors affecting Z. develop allometric models estimating this production. Total harvest method was used quantify from 130 individuals...

Abstract Populations of Anogeissus leïocarpa (DC.) Guill. & Perr. in Niger have come under increasing demographic as well climatic pressures, which are threatening indigenous tree species that contribute substantially to income generation rural households. Understanding how climate makes the particularly vulnerable extinction and range shifts may be driven by change is more urgent than ever. One powerful approach for assessment distribution habitat modelling, a promising tool priority...

Borassus akeassii is one of the most common fan palms in West and Central Africa. In Burkina Faso, species regenerates wild kept on farms by local people because its high usefulness. It used mainly communities for palm wine production basket-making. We investigated population dynamics conservation status order to provide tools sustainable management species. People (n = 233) from five different ethnic groups were interviewed their perceptions practices determined compared between...

West African Sahel is one of the most exposed areas to adverse effects climate variability in world. All agricultural production systems are affected. However, farmers use indigenous knowledge that enable them make short, medium, and long-term seasonal predictions order adapt their calendar these climatic risks. In North Central region Burkina Faso, this not well documented. Therefore, study aimed identify indicators forecasts analyze factors affecting reliability. Surveys were carried out...
