Abstract: (french)
Les producteurs agricoles de Bugorhe sont confrontés à des difficultés qui les empêchent de tirer profit de la commercialisation du maïs qu’ils produisent. Le maïs est commercialisé à l’état frais pendant les abondances saisonnières et son prix est généralement bas. Ainsi après récolte et analyse des données de la recherche sur les ménages agricoles de Bugorhe, les résultats suivants ont été obtenus : - 86,45% de ménages agricoles enquêtés sont affectés par la perturbation de prix du maïs ; 60,41% confirment l’instabilité du prix de maïs qu’ils produisent ; 79,16% affirment qu’ils vendent généralement leur maïs dans le champ ; 83,33% vendent leur maïs aux détaillants locaux pendant les abondances saisonnières ; 82,29% manquent des possibilités pour intégrer les marchés à fortes opportunités commerciales, etc ; comme principales difficultés de producteurs agricoles enquêtés. - 70, 83% préconisent qu’il serait souhaitable que le maïs soit en grande quantité commercialisé et distribué sur les grands marchés à fortes potentialités commerciales, à fortes demandes pour qu’il génère plus de recettes financières aux producteurs agricoles ; alors que 41,66% et 37,5% sont favorables pour que le produit soit distribué et commercialisé sur de grands marchés et sur les marchés urbains pour que les producteurs agricoles gagnent plus dans cette activité.
