Systèmes d’élevage ovin et gestion des ressources génétiques animales dans la région du Plateau central du Burkina Faso

Abstract: A l’image de l’ensemble de la filière de l’élevage dans les pays en développement, l’élevage ovin au Burkina Faso fait face à une demande croissante, dans un contexte de production socio­économique et environnemental contraignant. Cela a donné lieu à des croisements peu maîtrisés dans la zone périurbaine de la capitale, Ouagadougou. Afin d’identifier les moyens d’enca­drer ces pratiques pour rendre durables les systèmes ovins, une enquête a été conduite auprès de 63 éleveurs évoluant dans le milieu rural de la… Show more

“…Firstly, the selection of ewes and rams was mostly realized from the breeders’ own flocks, while urban markets and rural farms that were relevant for sheep breeders in Bobo Dioulasso [7], were of minor/no importance to obtain breeding stock for their counterparts in Ouagadougou. Secondly, the breeding of sheep in Ouagadougou was usually uncontrolled, which concurs with findings of previous studies among sheep breeders in Ouagadougou [44] and Bobo Dioulasso [7]. Similar to sheep farmers in Bobo Dioulasso [7] and in Niamey [43], the castration of male lambs was uncommon among sheep breeders in Ouagadougou.…”

“…The sheep production sector in Ouagadougou was dominated by the local Mossi sheep breed, as also reported by Tindano et al [9]. It is small-framed, resistant to diseases, hardy and well adapted to the local environment [9,44]. Concordantly, the sheep breeders in the present study preferred Mossi rams because of their good adaptation which incurred low requirements and costs.…”
