Diversity and socio-cultural importance of wild food herbs and cyanobacteria in the Lake Chad Basin (Niger)
Background: Wild herbaceous food species are declining throughout the Sahel region, particularly in the south-eastern corner of Niger, where settlements of thousands of refugees from Boko Haram, in addition to the native people, generate high pressure on the herbaceous food species. The objective of this study is to assess the use of wild herbaceous food plants in two departments in the Lake Chad Basin. Methods: Ethnobotanical surveys were conduc…
Development of agroforestry food resources in Niger
This study deals with key elements for a better understanding of the management approaches of agroforestry systems in Niger. A contingent ranking was conducted to 399 Nigerien farmers in three agroecological zones based on their different socio-economic and environmental conditions. Results show that farmers are willing to improve their natural resources, taking actions to recover and conserve them. Significant differences are found with respect …
Consumer Preferences for Baobab Products and Implication for Conservation and Improvement Policies of Forest Food Resources in Niger (West Africa)
Urban Biodiversity
This study was undertaken to obtain direct and useful data that support biodiversity awareness and management in two cities of Niger. 800 questionnaires were administrated to the populations of Niamey and Maradi. The results show that 99% of respondents are aware of the importance of biodiversity in urban areas. They assign multiple roles to it; however, climatic and managerial reasons explain why plants are most preferred to animals in these cit…
Changing systems and changing landscapes
The linkages between global and policy drivers of land use on the \none hand, and land cover data on the other are explored in four \ndryland areas (Machakos/Makueni Districts in Kenya; Maradi Department \nin Niger; Diourbel Region in Senegal; the Kano Close- \nSettled Zone in Nigeria). The findings are that (1) land cover \nchange data are insensitive to short term changes in economic circumstances, \nmainly because a subsistence priority constr…
