Conducted in the urban commune of Madarounfa, this study aims to analyze the potential of honey production and the contribution of beekeeping to the economy of rural households. The study covered six villages namely Saulawa, Tsola, Kabobi, Bargaja, Dan Toudou and Garass. A total of 39 beekeepers were identified and surveyed. In addition to the survey, visits and observations were carried out on the production sites to assess the technical production outlet as well as the quantity and quality of the honey obtained. Although, the production of honey is artisanal, this activity constitutes a significant source of income. The results of the study revealed that the beekeepers of the commune of Madarounfa have a long experience in the field and this due to the melliferous potentialities that exist in this ecological zone. In fact, 28 melliferous species have been identified. Species like Vitellaria paradoxa and Faidherbia albida are the most visited by the bees. It also appears that the production of honey is very variable according to the seasons. Thus, the cold season from November to January is the favorable period to the high production of honey. The income from the sale of honey is very appreciable and turns on average around 114,862 FCFA / year per beekeeper and per village. Despite this significant contribution to the household economy, beekeeping faces enormous difficulties including the lack of support from partners, lack of organization of beekeepers and the lack of an adequate management plan.
The determination of the impact of the Natural Regeneration Assisted on the avifauna, which is very good indicating of transformation of the landscapes, requires proceeding to its inventory.
The present study carried out in the village of Dan Saga in the months from September 2014 and 2015 which a site par excellence of the RNA were for the first time the object of an inventory in order to see the contribution of the Natural Regeneration Assisted on the return of the avifauna. In this direction it was preceded, with an inventory of the avian biodiversity by the combination of the methods of line and not transects. Thus, eight transects were traversed during the two programs of census.
It comes out from this study that the village of Dan Saga has a good avian diversity, represented by 29 species of which most frequently observed are pass griseus, Bubalornis albirostris and Petronia dentata. These species set out again in 20 Families.
The Kilometric Index of Abundance (KIA) were much more important on Transect of North-West (TNO) and Transect of North (TN) where Faidherbia albida are important; on the other hand Transect of East (TE) presents the weakest IKA.
Finally we can say that assisted natural regeneration supports the maintenance and the blooming of avian fauna.
