Two contrasting process scales (laboratory-scale vs conventional) were com- pared in order to identify which U.O. were affected by the change of scale. U.O. that changed end-pro- duct characteristics depending on process scale were deemed critical; whereas U.O. that resulted in similar characteristics were deemed robust. The classification depended on quality attributes considered: rasping and roasting were critical for physical properties, in particular particle size which ranged from 0.44 to 0.89 mm between the two process scales; and robust for biochemical properties.

  • Indirect Exposure to Colonial Education and Intergenerational
    The Strength of Weak Ties: Indirect Exposure to Colonial Education and Intergenerational Mobility in Benin ⇤ Leonard Wantchekon† April 12, 2019 Abstract We use historical micro-level data from the first regional schools in colonial Benin to esti- mate the e↵ect of education on social mobility over three generations. Since school location and student cohorts were selected quasi-randomly, the e↵ect of education can be estimated by comparing the treated to the untreated living in the same village as well as those from villages with no school (Wantchekon et al. [2015]). We find positive treatment e↵ects of education on social mobility across three generations. Surprisingly, the e↵ect is strongest for descendants of grandparents who were exposed to education only through their social networks (the untreated living in villages with a school). We interpret this result as evidence of “the strength of weak ties” (Grannoveter [1977]). Finally, exploring the underlying mechanism of our results, we find that mobility from the first to the second generation is driven by parental aspiration, which is sustained by the risk attitudes and mobility of the third generation. ⇤This paper was prepared for the NYU Development Research Institute success project.

Benin is located in the Gulf of Guinea of the Atlantic Ocean in West Africa and covers 114,763 km2. The population estimated in 2017 is 10,900,000 inhabitants with an annual population growth rate of 3.5%. The country is primarily an agro-based economy, characterized by subsistence agricultural production that employs more than 70%. The climate ranges from the bimodal rainfall equatorial type in the south to the tropical unimodal monsoon type in the north.

Three and a half years’ worth of data were collected from 2013 to 2016, using a video system calibrated with field data collected during a 10 day experiment. A comparison was carried out with Wavewatch III IOWAGA wave hindcast data. The along-shore-averaged shoreline position exhibited a seasonal pattern, which was related more to the average wave height than the average storm intensity.

  • 3.5.1 Benin Food Suppliers
    3.5.1 Benin Food Suppliers Overview Retail Sector Wholesale Overview In Benin, cotton accounted for 38.7% of export earnings in 2013 (up 41.8% compared to 2012). The cultivation of cashews grew strongly between 2010 and 2015, making Benin the fifth largest producer in the world, with between 120,000 and 180,000 tons of cashew nuts per year. Cashew is now the second largest agricultural product exported after cotton, accounting for 7% of GDP. Ground nuts are also among the main products exported. The structure of the Beninese economy is largely determined by its strategic position on the West African coast, next to Nigeria. Opportunities of formal or informal trade with Nigeria and the service opportunities of the landlocked countries of the hinterland have led to little diversification of the Beninese economy. In September 2013, inflation was reduced to 3.2% in average variation (against 6.2% in 2012), slightly above the UEMOA convergence criterion of 3%. The primary sector accounted for 32.2% of GDP in 2011. While the country has considerable agricultural potential, only 20% of arable land is exploited. Agricultural yields show considerable margins of increase. Agriculture accounts for 37.1% of GDP. The three largest agricultural crops in Benin in 2011 (grown for local livelihood) were cassava (3,645,000 tonnes), yams (2,734,000 tonnes) and maize (1,165,000 tonnes). Benin also produces cocoa, beans, rice, pineapples and other tubers. Additional information can be located from sources which are regularly maintained and reflect current facts and figures.

The data collected in 40 rectangular plots of 1000 m² sized showed that M. altissima is more preferred species in this environment (Ri = 37.5%). Variables such as tree density, stand basal area, and mean diameter of tree were respectively 20 stems/ha, 0.88 m²/ha and 23.91 cm. Weibull 3-parameters distribution showed an « inverted J » shape with the predominance of medium class-sized individuals (DBH=15 cm). Germination test showed that M. altissima seeds were affected by a tegumentary dormancy making the germination rate decrease after a long conservation. Soaking of seeds in boiling water was an appropriate treatment to overcome this dormancy and to reduce the latency time and the average duration of germination. This also speed up seeds germination and allowed the highest germination rates.

E-mail: [email protected]. Accepted 27th June, 2019. Abstract. Pigeon pea is a minor crop that plays a key role in the daily subsistence of smallholders in Benin. In order to promote its cultivation, this study has been conducted to document the indigenous knowledge related to its production system as well its ethnobotanical importance and cultivation constraints which limit its production in southern Benin. In total, 338 farmers belonging to 5 sociolinguistic groups were surveyed in 23 villages covering the major production areas in the country. In general, pigeon pea is often cultivated in association with other crops. Our results revealed that 94.97% of the farmers surveyed grew pigeon pea in association with other crops while only 5.03% of them cultivate pigeon pea in monocultural system. Regarding the use of agricultural inputs, the majority of the farmers did not use any inputs in pigeon pea production. Nonetheless, in some villages especially in Zou and Collines departments, some farmers used insecticide/pesticide for controlling pest and diseases. According to farmers, the most important factor which limits pigeon pea production in the study areas was the lack of improved varieties.
