Abstract: (french)
Le paysan de KANKU vit de l’agriculture et est défavorisé par le contexte institutionnel, le manque d’infrastructure de soutien pour son activité et se retrouve en difficulté pour gérer et commercialiser sa production. Cette étude a été menée de façon à évaluer le mode de gestion et de commercialisation des produits agricoles de ce paysan du groupement KANGU, afin de dégager les facteurs qui peuvent lui permettre à mieux gérer cette production et arriver en mieux en tirer profit. Une enquête structurée a été réalisée au sein de 5 localités du groupement KANGU. Cette enquête a usé des méthodes d’échantillonnage aléatoire simple et statistique, accompagnée par une analyse empirique pour la collecte des données. Une analyse statistique a été réalisée pour le traitement des données brutes. Après cette analyse, il ressort que ce paysan produit pour deux fins notamment l’autoconsommation et la commercialisation. Une grande proportion, soit plus de 59%, des produits de base commerçables est destinée à la commercialisation et, le troc avec 76.1% est le mode de commercialisation le plus pratiqué en ce milieu par le paysan malgré le fait qu’il soit défavorable pour le paysan. Le manque d’infrastructure de soutien (marché spécifique, voies d’évacuation, etc.) est ce qui contraint le producteur à faire recourt à ce mode d’échange.
Author Keywords: agriculture, paysan, produit, troc, marché.
