Stratégies d'adaptation des producteurs agricoles aux risques hydroclimatiques dans le bassin Béninois de la pendjari à l'exutoire de Porga

<p>West Africa's dependence on the increased impacts of extreme hydroclimatic hazards increases the vulnerability of food production to the resulting risks. This study analyses the adaptation strategies developed by agricultural producers in the Beninese Pendjari basin to cope with hydroc...

This study analyses the adaptation strategies developed by agricultural producers in the Beninese Pendjari basin to cope with hydroclimatic risks. The methodological approach adopted consisted in the use of climatological data (height of daily and monthly rainfall) from the Tanguiéta and Natitingou stations over the period from 1965 to 2017 obtained in Météo-Bénin .

Direct observations in the field have also made it possible to better identify peasant adaptation strategies to the effects of hydroclimatic risks in the Beninese Pendjari basin.

To reduce their vulnerability, producers in the Benin Pendjari basin are developing several risk prevention and disaster management strategies. These include transplanting crops including sorghum by 100 % of the producers met, the disposal of logs, the enhancement of the shallows. In view of the effectiveness of the strategies identified and the limitations they present, it is important that the authorities develop a policy that is more sensitive to hydroclimatic risks, in order to improve the adaptation capacity of agricultural producers.</p>P.
