La gestion durable des terres (GDT) est devenue un moyen pour combattre l’insécurité alimentaire et fournir un revenu adéquat aux producteurs dans les Pays En Voie de Développement (PEVD) face à la baisse de la fertilité des sols. Cet article avait pour but de synthétiser 145 documents sélectionnés dans la base de données Scopus menés sur les technologies de GDT pour ressortir les facteurs clés qui motivent leur adoption et les approches de diffusion appréciées pour leur mise à l’échelle. Les déterminants ont été regroupés en 4 sous-groupes. Le premier groupe était constitué des facteurs psycho-sociodémographiques. Le deuxième groupe était constitué des facteurs économiques. Le troisième groupe était constitué des facteurs institutionnels et le quatrième niveau concernerait les facteurs biophysiques. Cette revue et synthèse attire l’attention sur le fait de rendre palpable la participation des producteurs en les plaçant au coeur du processus d’adoption. Améliorer les taux d’adoption faible constaté passe donc par une batterie de mesures de politiques agricoles dans ces PEVD. Il faudra proposer des technologies types adaptées aux profils des agriculteurs et à l’environnement de leurs parcelles tout en travaillant sur l’amélioration de leur condition économique en passant par la fourniture de services institutionnels adéquats. Une attention particulière doit être apportée à la gente féminine qui est souvent laissée pour compte. Sustainable land management (SLM) has become a means to combat food insecurity and provide adequate income to smallholders in developing countries (DC). This article synthesizes 145 papers selected from the SCOPUS database conducted on SLM technologies to highlight the key factors that motivate their adoption and the dissemination approaches appreciated for their scaling up. The determinants were grouped into 4 subgroups. The first group is made up of psycho-socio-demographic factors. The second group is made up of economic factors. The third group consisted of institutional factors and the fourth level concerned biophysical factors. This review and synthesis draws attention to making the participation of smallholders tangible by placing them at the heart of the adoption process. Improving the observed low adoption rates therefore requires a battery of agricultural policy measures in these DC. It will be necessary to offer standard technologies adapted to the profiles of farmers and the environment of their plots while working on improving their economic condition through the provision of adequate institutional service. Particular attention must be paid to women who are often overlooked.
Despite efforts to restore land and fight food insecurity, sustainable land management (SLM) technologies are not yet widely adopted in developing countries. This article reviews and synthesizes studies that have been conducted in developing countries over the last few decades. A total of 145 documents were used in this synthesis. A key finding of this paper is the identification of a theoretical gap that provides information for future studies on SLM practices.Another one is that, studies focusing on adoption in this synthesis have not considered awareness of technology as a key part of the adoption process. Most econometric studies focus on econometric regression and consider SLM adoption as a dichotomous choice. The use of mathematical models such as existing dynamic Discrete Stochastic Programming (DSP) models could provide more robust results to overcome this limitation observed in statistical regression results. Additionally, it would be interesting to analyze smallholder farmers’ preferences for SLM practices because very little is currently known about their preferences.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
