Economic Risks and Uncertainties in a Context of Climate Change : Teachings on the Use of Information Systems in the Senegalese Groundnut Basin (EXCERPT FROM CHAP. 5 « Crop Adaptation and Improvement for Drought-Prone Environments »)
This chapter aims to show the benefits of systematically using information systems as a basis for agricultural decisions and strategies in the Senegalese groundnut basin. The research involved two surveys conducted by ISRA/ Bame in 2016. The first, which focuses on market information, was conducted on a sample of 105 cowpea farmers who use the Yeugglé Market Information System (MIS) to obtain information on the current price in the markets of Diourbel, Bambey, and Fatick from weekly telephone messages. The second, based on a sample of 82 farmers in the regions of Diourbel, Kaolack, and Kaffrine, focuses on Climate Information (CI). The approach is based on a statistical analysis of variables related to the influence of market and climatic information on production, marketing, and agricultural input investment decisions. The results show that for 49% of farmers, market information influences their choice of markets. For most farmers (85%), market information influences the decision of sale, period, and allows farmers to make trade-offs in time and space. Regarding climate information, the results show that 67% of respondents use it and that the national meteorological service is the main provider (52%), followed by the radio (6%), and the Yeugglé platform (4%).

CROP ADAPTATION AND IMPROVEMENT FOR DROUGHT-PRONE ENVIRONMENTS - The entire book
The book encompasses 19 chapters and is organized into three parts – socioeconomic analysis of dryland crop production, advanced phenotyping and crop modelling for adaptation to drylands, and genetic diversity and improvement of dryland crops. The richness of this book lies in the multidisciplinary expertise mobilized by CERAAS through its partnerships, but unfortunately, not all chapters received could be included in this book. To maintain the standards of scientific quality and thematic relevance, some chapters were excluded. However, throughout the review process, which involved both internal and external steps, authors were guided with constructive feedback. In addition, research related to dryland crop management, crop protection, nutrition, as well as technology diffusion pathways, and gender and youth inclusion were deliberately not addressed in this book to keep this first edition concise and focused on CERAAS’ core discipline – genetic improvement.Editors: Ndjido A.
