“…Due to the incomplete updating of vital records, Burkina Faso's public statistics use demographic projections to maintain updated population numbers between censuses. After the fourth population census was conducted in 2006, the country produced three documents presenting demographic projections (Guengant et al, 2009;INSD, 2009INSD, , 2017, which described a scenario where its population reached 21 million in 2020. However, when evaluating and using such a figure, it is important to examine the underlying hypotheses critically and to consider the variables used to produce it, its time horizon, and the sociopolitical context.…”

Great steps have been made in recent decades in observing the Earth from the sky. Landscapes and infrastructure can now be mapped at an extremely fine spatial scale. These data-particularly useful to geographers-can also benefit demographers. By combining observations of buildings in satellite images with complementary demographic data, population sizes in areas not reached by the census can be estimated. The authors apply this method to the case of Burkina Faso and explain how a hybrid population census can be carried out when data cannot be collected in some areas.

“…So, improving the production level requires solid input and knowledge of agriculture. But in recent years, among the different challenges, improving agricultural output has emerged as the most urgent problem facing the global development community [14], in developing countries in particular. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic has posed enormous obstacles to the agri-food system, including a lack of inputs and technical support [15].…”

“…Supply chain disruptions have also resulted in a lack of farm equipment and spare parts, hampering agricultural production. Therefore, various policies and strategies have been implemented in most countries, including Cote d'Ivoire, to encourage farmers to adopt innovations and sustain agricultural growth [14,17].…”

Determinants Influencing Cocoa Farmers’ Satisfaction with Input Credit in the Nawa Region of Côte d’Ivoire

Assessing farmers’ satisfaction with Input Credit (IC) is essential for agricultural modernization in Sub-Saharan African countries. Therefore, based on farmers’ socio-economics data, this study aimed to determine the potential factors influencing farmers’ satisfaction with IC. The data were collected through a questionnaire from a random sample of 311 farmers in the Nawa region of southwestern Côte d’Ivoire in November 2022. Farmers rated constraints in the use of IC on three main indicators: (1) availability of inputs, (2) accessibility, and (3) credit repayment conditions. In addition to the descriptive statistics, a logistic regression model was constructed to compute the results using Stata 17.0 software. The main findings of descriptive statistics showed that 61.97% of the farmers were dissatisfied with using IC, while 38.03% were satisfied. The results also indicated that about 61.15% of farmers were constrained by credit services for inputs, compared to 38.85%. The logistic regression results revealed that the factors that significantly influence farmers’ satisfaction were annual production required and the number of years (at 1%) of IC use, training programs for farmers, farm size, input price (at 10%), and age (at 5%). Accordingly, cacao production in Côte d’Ivoire still faces multiple and complex factors. So, the results provide practical implications for policymakers and innovators to support smallholder farmers in providing high-quality technology innovation adoption programs.

La faible capacité de résilience de certaines catégories sociales les rend plus vulnérables au changement climatique. Ces catégories sociales développent des mécanismes d’adaptation pour réduire leur vulnérabilité. L’étude vise à analyser la vulnérabilité des populations au changement climatique afin d’appréhender les mécanismes d’adaptation développés par les catégories sociales vulnérables au Nord-Bénin. L’âge, le sexe, les moyens et modes d’existence, les activités économiques, les évènements climatiques, les pratiques d’adaptation et leur nature, et cetera ont été collectés dans le village de Woria (Tchaourou) lors des assemblées villageoises. Ces données ont été traitées à l’aide de techniques d’analyse de discours. Des indicateurs d’exposition et d’impact ont été calculés. Les événements climatiques sont les poches de sécheresse, les vents violents, les inondations, les pluies diluviennes, les arrêts précoces et tardifs des pluies. Les terres et la biodiversité sont des systèmes naturels plus vulnérables que les plans d’eau au changement climatique. Les systèmes humains les plus sensibles aux effets néfastes du changement climatique sont l’agriculture, l’élevage et la santé humaine. La sensibilité de ces systèmes humains rend les agriculteurs, les commerçants et les éleveurs plus vulnérables au changement climatique. Les jeunes et les femmes sont plus vulnérables au changement climatique. Les mécanismes d’adaptation développés sont orientés vers la gestion du temps, la gestion du stock, les cultures, les activités non agricoles et le type de terre utilisée.
