| description | This report presents the results of the baseline survey of the Transforming Agrifood Systems in
West and Central Africa initiative (TAFS-WCA) in Burundi. Six regions of Burundi were
surveyed. Data were collected using a smart tablet with the CSPro application. A total of 572
actors in agricultural production and value chain were surveyed during the baseline data
collection in Burundi. These are mainly rice, beans, cassava, banana and sweet potato producers,
inputs dealer, traders, processors and service providers. All data analyses were carried out with
the STATA 16 software.
Out of the surveyed population, 41.61% (238) are rice producers, 10.49% (60) bean producers,
10.49% (60) cassava producers, 11.01% (63) sweet potato producers, 11.66% (99) banana
producers, 12.76% (73) traders, 2.27% (13) processors and 0.70% (4) service providers. The
average age of actors is 43 years old and ranges from 18 to 79 years old, and the average
household size is 6 persons. About 67% of actors are male and 88% are married. In addition,
77% of the actors have received formal education and 84% have crop production has main
activity. Moreover, 76 % of producers produce during the rainy season, 9% during dry season
while 15% in both seasons.
With regard to climate change information’s, about 9% of producers have access to forecasts of
extreme climatic events (drought, flood, strong wind, etc.) and 8% to information on seasonal
forecasts (weather for the following 2-3 months).
In relation to food security and the poverty index, preliminary results show that the vast majority
of actors have an acceptable level of dietary diversity, meal frequency and nutritional importance
of the food groups consumed; and according to the poverty index, the rate of poor actors is 56% |
