In the semi-arid zones of West Africa, the relationships between organic matter management methods, soil quality who has resulted and cotton production, remains little or poorly known. In a simple non-randomized block design located at Boni in western Burkina Faso, we studied the impact of three organic matter management methods on soil quality and cotton yield over a period of thirty years. The three modes of crop residue management compared were: extensive management, where residues are exported (SI); semi-intensive management (SII); and intensive management of crop residues (SIII), corresponding to compost and recycled manure inputs respectively. The results showed that, over time, cotton yields and rainfall fluctuated almost identically, whatever the crop residue management method. In terms of soil chemical properties, compost (7.16 g.kg-1) and manure (6.75 g.kg-1) reduced the degradation of soil fertility compared with the initial soil (7.70 g.kg-1). Investigation into the determinants of cotton production at farm level showed that the factors controlling cotton yield are major elements (C, N, Pas and Kt), exchangeable bases (Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+ and K+) and CEC. Regardless of how soil fertility is managed, cultivation has led to a decline in soil fertility. This study served as a reminder of the benefits of good agricultural practices for sustainable soil fertility management.

Abstract: (french)
En zones semi-arides de l’Afrique de l’Ouest, les relations entre les modes de gestion de la matière organique, la qualité du sol et la production cotonnière, qui en résultent, reste très peu ou mal connue. Dans un dispositif expérimental en blocs simples non randomisés localisé à Boni à l’Ouest du Burkina Faso, nous avons étudié sur une durée de trente années l’impact de trois modes de gestion de la matière organique sur le sol et sur le rendement du cotonnier. Trois modes de gestion des résidus de récolte sont mis en comparaison sont: la gestion extensive où les résidus sont exportés (SI); la gestion semi-intensive (SII) et la gestion intensive des résidus de récolte (SIII) correspondant respectivement aux apports de compost et de fumier recyclés. Les résultats ont montré sur la durée une fluctuation quasi-similaire des productions cotonnières et de la pluviosité quel que soit le mode de gestion des résidus de récolte. Sur les propriétés chimiques du sol, les apports de compost (7,16 g.kg-1) et de fumier (6,75 g.kg-1) ont permis d’atténuer le processus de dégradation de la fertilité du sol par rapport au sol de départ (7,70 g.kg-1). L’investigation sur les déterminants de la production cotonnière à l’échelle de l’exploitation a montré que les facteurs contrôlant le rendement du cotonnier sont les éléments majeurs (C, N, Pas et Kt) et les bases échangeables (Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+ et K+) et la CEC. Quel que soit le mode de gestion de la fertilité des sols, la mise en culture des sols a entraîné une baisse de la fertilité des sols. Cette étude a servi de cadre pour rappeler les bénéfices des bonnes pratiques agricoles afin de gérer durablement la fertilité du sol.
