Impact of land use types on population structure and extent of bark and foliage harvest of Afzelia africana and Pterocarpus erinaceus in Eastern Burkina Faso
Blandine Marie Ivette Nacoulma, Salifou Traoré, Karen Hahn and Adjima Thiombiano
In the West African Sudanian regions, people depend on natural products, especially on highly valued species as source of income, fuel wood, food, medicine, fodder for livestock etc. However, land-use management coupled with unsustainable uses of highly valued trees might jeopardize the long-term viability of some speciesrsquo; populations.

Tree leaves in the diet of free-ranging ruminants in three areas of Burkina Faso
H H Hansen, L Sanou and B M I Nacoulma
A study was undertaken to document the botanical composition of free ranging cattle and small ruminants in three separate areas of Burkina Faso, as the first step towards improved use and management of trees. Faecal samples were taken from cattle at three sites and from small ruminants at one site throughout a year and plant particles in the f(...)

Effet de la fertilisation minérale sur la décomposition d´un mélange de feuilles dans un parc agroforestier à Boni
Hugues R. BAZIE
Agroforestry parklands occupy a key place in farming system of Burkina Faso. However, there is a limited management of the litter from trees of parklands for soil fertility
improvement. Therefore, the present study was carried out with the aim to quantify the litter produced yearly and understand the decomposition rate as well as the release(...)

Harouna Ouédraogo, Adama Ilboudo, Daouda Guébré, Der Somé, Aminata Ganeme, Koulibi Fidèle Zongo, Aboubacar Coulibaly, Céline Sanou, Edmond Hien
La faible fertilité du sol et les séquences de sécheresse sont des contraintes pour le développement de la production végétale au Burkina Faso.
Une étude a été réalisée pour déterminer les effets du polyter et du turbo-bio sur deux types contrastés de sols et la production de l’aubergine. L’essai a été
installé selon un dispositif en blo(...)
