CASE STUDY OF TECHNOLOGIES TRANSFER ON CAPACITY BUILDING AGAINST CLIMATE VARIABILITY AND CLIMATE CHANGE Dr Moussa Sanon
Plan of presentation Introduction Case study - Why this program - How to do - Somme results Conclusion
COUNTRY LOCATION Enclosed country in the middle part of West Africa (no direct access to sea)
Most of soils are poor, superficial and sensitive to the erosion
Rain season variability High evaporation against low level of rain fall; inundations and dry periods during rain seasons.
The study of experts on the vulnerability has shown that, in the sector of rural production, cotton, bovines and the sorghum are the most sensitive.
A group of experts focus their investigations on cotton and bovine, in the West part of the country, and found out main recommended technologies.
METHODOLOGIE Elaboration of the guide of discussion Identification of structures or services Discussions with focus groups Individuals discussions Summary bibliography - Identification of services able to ensure technologies - Most important technologies and their difficulties in case of transfer.
Somme recommandations Improve the access of producers to good quality seeds of best varieties
Somme recommandations Restore and improve soil physical and chemical fertility; increase the availability of the water coming from rains for cultures.
Somme recommandations Strengthen capacities by the trainings, demonstrations and exchanges of experiences
Somme recommandations Improving the efficiency of water use by adopting appropriate methods for irrigated cultures and developing complementary irrigation.
CASE STUDYTECHNOLOGIES TRANSFERT ON CAPACITY BUILDING AGAINST CLIMATE VARIABILITY AND CLIMAT CHANGE Centre Régional Agrhymet, Environnement Canada, INERA
WHY? Against vulnerability, for adaptation to climate variability and climate change in Sahel Soil fertility management is an important contribution
Who is involved in this war? Regional level Countries of CILSS CRA Burkina Faso DNM, INERA Autorités politiques, Techniques services (CRREA, DPAHRH, Groupement Naam) Province of Zondoma Departments Help of administration Villages Help of indigenous authorities and Farmers organizations Producers Effective participation
Main objectif To inventory and strengthen ecological, agronomical and socio-economic responses to the process of soil degradation in the Sahel in a climate change context.
HOW TO DO? To share knowledge and ideas by the information, the awareness, the training and an evaluation of appropriated technologies.
GLOBAL APPROCH Share knowledge and ideas with producers (discussions with focus groups) Inventory and evaluation of the technologies and strategies of adjustment by discussion, tests of demonstration. awareness on climate change and lands dégradation (discussions with focus groups) Improvement and regularity of the vegetable production (training) Improvement of animals production (training) Integrated management of natural resources and adaptation to climate change Contribution to the reduction of the poverty
Launching Workshop Administrative and customary authorities at the workshop effective participation of technical services
Strategies of adaptation • 95% of producers practice at least a technique of waters and soil management; • 36% practice soil restoration; • 76% practice the association of crops; • 79% choice a good variety ; • 43% increase their superficies ; • 71% Say they have intensified their agricultural production system; • The integration of vegetal and animal productions is considered by 97% of farmers.
Tests of demonstration After soil management (zaï, alf moon, stons cord) • No no fertilization • organic matter contribution (compost, manure) • organic matter and 100 kg/ha of NPK contribution • organic matter and 100 kg/ha of NPK plus 50kg/ha Urea contribution. • Improved variety and producer variety.

Objectif of tests • The principal objective of tests was to create fields school to strengthen capacities of producers; • to collect information to discuss results obtained through survey; • to strengthen decision-making by report to options of production; • To identify constraints linked to the improvement of technologies.
Commented Visit at maturity Producers have harvested and weighed grains and stems by processing
CONCLUSION To succeed the transfer of technologies, it is necessary: • implication of populations since the basis level; • techniques and constraint inventory; • implementation of a many technologies and not an isolated technology; • strengthening of population capacities; • Financial supports.
