Local food production (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9786208158286)

Perennial agriculture and mining are Boundiali's main economic activities. Media coverage of the cotton bonanza obscures the policy of self-sufficiency in local food products. The marginalization of food-producing agriculture is therefore back in the spotlight, creating a strong demand for food in the study area. However, a socio-cultural organization has been set up by rural populations to supply the Boundiali urban market. The aim of this study is to analyze the impact of local food production in supplying the Boundiali market. The results show that maize (37.85%), groundnuts (37.38%), rice (22.33%) and yams (1.87%) are the dominant foodstuffs offered by local producers at the Boundiali market. Chicken (36.19%), goat (8.25%), mutton (23.92%), beef (27.20%), pork (1.27%) and guinea fowl (3.17%) are the main food animal products in the study block.
