The study in relationship with endogenous adjustment of agroecosystems and security feeding to climate change and perturbation has been conducted to South-Kivu throughout an investigation by questionnaire near 422 chiefs of agricultural households in the global purpose to contribute to a lasting management of agroecosystems and the comprehension of dynamic functioning of exploitations of natural resources throughout the identification of strategies set by the agricultural household to fight against harmful effects of climate perturbation in their activities. The study has shown that in South-Kivu, adjustment strategies are especially reactive and their adoption by agroecosystems exploiters is very slow and in the government programs, the adjustment of the sector of the feeding production to climate change is not yet among priorities. This conducts to encourage political deciders, farmers and Scientists to set agroecological techniques and practices the systems of assurances to agricultural risks and installs the precocious alert system in each territory to warman inform agricultural on the evolution of environmental parameters.
Due to the agroecosystem deterioration of family exploitation in South Kivu, there is food insecurity and the depletion of natural resources threats present and future generations. This investigation has documented and characterized the family agroecosystems degradation in order to contribute to lasting management of resources for community benefit. The agroecosytems of family exploitation are characterized by complete lands deterioration, fallow land absence, Allan coefficient L inferior to 5, biodiversity loss, marginal lands cultivated, reduction of individual plots for a generation to another and by the production fall that are accentuated by climatic variability and demographic pressure. These are caused anthropogenic activities, inappropriate agriculture application, bad usage of lands and biodiversity and the negligence of family lands final aim. The exploitation regulation, the restoration and lasting management of agroecosytem are the possible ways to improve these inherited properties.
