Mandarino/Istituto Euromediterraneo, Tempio Pausania (Sardinia) Land07-1Book 1.indb 97 12-07-2007 16:30:59 Demarcation conflicts within and between communities in Benin: identity withdrawals and contested co-existence African urban development policy in the 1990s focused on raising municipal income from land. Population growth and a neoliberal environment weakened the control of clans and lineages over urban land ownership to the advantage of individuals, but without eradicating the importance of personal relationships in land transactions or of clans and lineages in the political structuring of urban space. The result, especially in rural peripheries, has been an increase in land aspirations and disputes and in their social costs, even in districts with the same territorial control and/or the same lines of nobility. Some authors view this simply as land “problems” and not as conflicts pitting locals against outsiders and degenerating into outright clashes. However, decentralization gives new dimensions to such problems and is the backdrop for clashes between differing perceptions of territorial control. This article looks at the ethnographic features of some of these clashes in the Dahoman historic region of lower Benin, where boundaries are disputed in a context of poorly managed urban development. Such disputes stem from land registries of the previous but surviving royal administration, against which the fragile institutions of the modern state seem to be poorly equipped. More than a simple problem of land tenure, these disputes express an internal rejection of the legitimacy of the state to engage in spatial structuring based on an ideal of co-existence; a contestation that is put forward with the de facto complicity of those acting on behalf of the state.

    Policy Brief Falylath Babah Daouda and Paul T.M. Ingenbleek October 2020 Endogenous Products to Increasing Food Security in Benin Who is this aimed at? • Agricultural policy makers in government and institutions • Agri-businesses Key messages • The white KG with small grain size is highly accepted and strongly demanded in Benin. • The production of KG is the main barrier to its market development. • Farmers’ decision to augment the quantity of their production of KG is based on an assessment of a combination of contract farming attributes. • To be successful in implementing a contract farming on the production of KG, a contracting company needs either to be well-known by the farmers or to rely on a well-known procurement officer by farmers. Policy options • Traditional marketing system may be considered for market development for KG • Institutional arrangements can help to increase the production of KG • Satisfying farmers ultimate needs for producing KG may be a first milestone to insuring KG accessibility and affordability. Executive Summary and was based on a quasi-experiment with 254 farmers in KG growing basin (Central region of Benin). The contract attributes for the supply of KG are pre-production agreements Kersting groundnut (KG) is a crop used mostly in feasts and between the farmer and the eventual buyer to reduce big events and known as Doyiwé in Benin that has been uncertainties and costs related to farm input, output market and neglected because of a lack of incentive, policy and research quality of KG. support for its production. Production and marketing systems for the crop seem to be fragmented as there are many varieties of the grains being cultivated.

  • Benin• Floods Situation Report #8 4 November 2010
    Benin• Floods Situation Report #8 4 November 2010 This report was issued by UNOCHA Benin. It covers the period from 27 October to 4 November. The next report will be issued on or around 11 November. I. HIGHLIGHTS/KEY PRIORITIES • Rains continue, mostly in the north of the country, although the dry season is expected to start soon. • The Emergency Humanitarian Appeal Plan was launched this week requesting US$ 46,847,399 to assist flood victims. • On 30 October WFP started food distribution in Zagnanado for 2,450 vulnerable people in collaboration with the National Red Cross. II. Situation Overview The latest governmental figures report that 680,000 people and 55 municipalities out of 77 in the country have been affected by floods since the start of heavy rains in August. The flooding has caused at least 46 deaths, 1,000 injuries and left more than 150,000 people homeless. According to field reports, sporadic rains continue mostly in the north, but waters are gradually receding in many parts of the country. In some departments water stagnation continues. Humanitarian organizations, including United Nations agencies and NGOs, are working to provide assistance to those in need, especially in the area of food, health, shelters, and water and sanitation. Health could become a major concern in the worst affected areas, as the recession of water in the next few weeks could increase the number of cholera and malaria cases. Serious humanitarian consequences will be registered particularly in the agricultural sector as the planting season, due to start in November, will be severely affected by the unexpectedly high rainfall.
