  • La place des jeunes africains sur les périmètres irrigués dans un contexte de libéralisation et de partenariat public privé

    Open AccessEl Hadji Malick Sylla, Bruno Barbier et al.ARTICLERevue Jeunes et Société2022

    This article analyzes different approaches to establishing rural youth in irrigation areas in the Senegal River delta in the context of new hydro-agricultural developments and massive land acquisitions by agrobusiness. Government-led irrigation projects introduced in the 1960s distributed free 0.2-hectare plots of land to young workers from the surrounding region. However, in the 1980s, Senegal took a liberal turn that led to a shift from public-…

  • Estimating the Potential Economic Value of Seasonal Forecasts in West Africa

    Benjamin Sultan, Bruno Barbier et al.ARTICLEWeather, Climate, and Society2010

    Recent improvements in the capability of statistical or dynamic models to predict climate fluctuations several months in advance may be an opportunity to improve the management of climatic risk in rain-fed agriculture. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the potential benefits that seasonal climate predictions can bring to farmers in West Africa. The authors have developed an archetypal bioeconomic model of a smallholder farm in Nioro du Rip, a …

  • Le retour des grands investissements hydrauliques en Afrique de l’Ouest

    Bruno Barbier, Hamma Yacouba et al.ARTICLEGéocarrefour2009Cited by: 1References: 14

    L’Afrique de l’ouest est relativement peu dotée en grandes infrastructures hydrauliques capables de satisfaire les demandes. Les cultivateurs, trop dépendants des aléas climatiques, réclament l’irrigation. Les consommateurs veulent du riz, qu’il faut irriguer. Les populations sont encore mal desservies en eau potable et le coût de l’énergie appelle à la mise en valeur du potentiel hydroélectrique. Les décideurs nationaux et internationaux sont bi…
