Most Sub-Saharan countries implement input subsidy programs (ISPs) in an attempt to increase fertilizer use, crop yields and farmers' income improve household food security. Senegal is no exception has had ISP place for the last 15 years. This article assesses how access subsidized under associated with changes manure use gross margin. Using household-level data from two agroecological zones, we employ endogenous switching regression framework control potential endogeneity of fertilizer. We...
Abstract Performant agricultural advisory services (AAS) in Africa are crucial for improving the productivity and food security of farm households. Yet, evidence‐based study on impacts AAS performance scarce, especially West African countries. This evaluates impact access to input use Senegal, employing instrumental variable control function approaches accounting selection bias. The also employed several sub‐samples see if heterogeneous across crop types fertilizer use, matching techniques...
It is commonly agreed that trade integration can contribute to the acceleration of economic growth and poverty alleviation. This one main reasons why African leaders committed at Malabo in 2014 tripling intra-Africa agricultural commodities services by 2025. commitment package includes establishment a continental free area common external tariff. Its objective also “to increase facilitate investment markets infrastructure” (AUC 2014, 5).
Households in the arid or semi-arid regions often practice transhumance, which means that household part of it moves seasonally with animals from a common pasture to another. Semi-arid Sahel have faced increasing environmental pressure due population growth and decreasing rainfall. In northern Senegal this has changed pattern movement stocking densities area. Pastoral livestock utilizes rangeland is heavily exposed weather variability. The goal paper examine how potential changes variability...
In this study, we develop an economy wide model for Burkina Faso to assess the most promising opportunities technological innovations enhance maize production and productivity their economywide effects. We simulate implementation of two agricultural using a customized Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model. One innovation is improvement famers’ efficiency, i.e. operating on frontier (typology scenario). The other shifts itself involves introduction new cultivar (crop has been made...
