Impact De L’utilisation Des Produits Phytosanitaires En Production Cotonniere Et Cacaoyere Sur La Production Apicole En Côte D’ivoire

Abstract: Beekeepers in northern and central part of Côte d'Ivoire, who are generally farmers, complain about desertions and frequent collapses of colonies. The application of pesticides to protect crops against attacks from disease and predators could be one of the factors responsible for these collapses and desertions. The objective of this study was to investigate if the use of agrochemicals in cotton and cocoa plantations could be a constraint to beekeeping. An interview implicating 51 beekeepers-farmers from eight … Show more

“…The peasant beekeepers surveyed have an average of 22 hives. This number is relatively low compared to those recorded in other countries by other authors, including [ 45 ] in the Central African Republic (40 to 70 hives) on average per beekeeper and [ 53 ] in Ivory Coast with an average of 105 hives per farmer beekeeper interviewed. This difference could be justified by the fact that beekeeping is still considered a secondary activity in Burkina Faso [ 37 , 54 ].…”

“…In general, the beekeepers surveyed do not have a solid knowledge of the biology, pathologies and multifactorial causes that would justify the desertions of bee colonies often observed [ 53 , 54 , 57 ]. Hives are usually installed in agricultural plots due to the lack of space to establish their apiary.…”
