RESUMELe Niger fait partie des pays les plus vulnérables au monde en raison du contexte lié à son climat, son environnement et à son économie. Le pays se classe au bas de l'échelle sur la quasi-totalité des indicateurs de développement humain. L'agriculture est le secteur le plus important de l'économie du Niger. Elle représente plus de 40% du produit intérieur brut national et constitue la principale source de revenus pour plus de 80% de la population. La performance du secteur agricole est néanmoins très instable du fait de sa forte exposition aux changements climatiques. Au cours des 30 dernières années, le Niger a subi de nombreuses sécheresses, inondations, invasions des criquets et autres attaques parasitaires. Ces catastrophes portent un coup aux revenus des ménages, à la performance du secteur agricole, à l'équilibre budgétaire de l'État et au taux de croissance économique du Niger. Conscients de la nécessité de s'attaquer spécifiquement aux problèmes agricoles dans tous ses aspects, les chercheurs de l'Institut National de Recherche Agronomique du Niger, les cadres de l'Agriculture et ceux de l'Université Abdou Moumouni donnent un aperçu des contraintes de la production agricole et proposent quelques axes d'interventions pour y remédier. © 2016 International Formulae Group.

The country is at the bottom of the scale according to human development index. Agriculture is the most important activity in Niger. It represents more than 40% of the national gross domestic product and is the main source of income for more than 80% of the population. However, the performance of the agricultural sector is very unstable due to its high exposure to climate change. Over the past 30 years, Niger has suffered many droughts, floods, invasions of locusts and other parasitic attacks. These disasters strike a blow to the Z. ABDOUL HABOU et al. / Int. J. Biol. Chem. Sci. 10(3): 1262-1272, 2016 1263 household income, the performance of the agricultural sector, impacted on the national budgets and the rate of economic growth. The researchers from National Institute of Agronomic Research of Niger and their colleagues from University of Niamey proposed an overview to explain the constraints of agricultural production and gave a few axes of intervention for solutions.
