To understand the dynamics of poverty and inequality between 1996 and 2001, this book develops a poverty and inequality profile, investigates the sources of inequality along spatial lines and simulates some policies which could be used in the reduction of poverty and inequality. The book also addresses two major sectors of the Cameroonian economy with a special focus on gender bias in agriculture and linkages between the formal and informal sector. The empirical analyses show that there are large spatial differences in poverty in Cameroon and that sources of inequality vary by location. Regardless of the definition used, the informal sector in Cameroon is extremely large but closely linked to the formal sector. The gender bias experienced by women in access to productive assets in agriculture reduces the efficiency of agricultural production. Wokia-azi Ndangle Kumase was born in Cameroon and graduated from the University of Buea in Cameroon with a Bsc. in banking and finance. He obtained a Masters degree in international economics and a PhD in development economics from the University of Göttingen. The author worked as a research assistant at the chair for development economics and consultant for the GTZ.

  • Cocoa Value Chain and Capacity Building of Women Cocoa-Farmers for Sustainable Improvement of Their Livelihoods: the Case of Mbangassina and Mbalmayo, Cameroon
    Advances in Life Sciences 2014, 4(4): 185-195 DOI: 10.5923/j.als.20140404.01 Cocoa Value Chain and Capacity Building of Women Cocoa-farmers for Sustainable Improvement of Their Livelihoods: The Case of Mbangassina and Mbalmayo, Cameroon P. Mounjouenpou1,*, J. Amang A. Mbang1, E. J. Nossi2, S. Bassanaga3, S. A. Maboune Tetmoun1, D. Achukwi1, N. Woin1 1Institut de Recherche Agricole pour le Développement (IRAD), BP 2067, Yaoundé, Cameroun 2Université de Yaoundé 1, Département de Sociologie, BP 337 Yaoundé, Cameroun 3Groupement d’Initiative CONACFAC, B.P. 34434 Yaoundé Cameroun Abstract Women in the subdivisions of Mbalmayo and Mbangassina, Cameroon are important in the cocoa value chain. At the same time, Women and children are the most suffering of poverty, malnutrition, food insecurity in rural area. Normally, women should be able to benefit from these activities, but are unable to do so, due to inadequacies in capacity building to transform cocoa in a way that can sustain both resources and people. Strengthening capacities of women cocoa-farmers is underscored to be central in ensuring sustainable solutions to the problem of malnutrition, food insecurity and declining income of cocoa farmers, as well as empower female leadership skills. This study consists to build capacities of women cocoa farmers of Mbalmayo and Mbangassina regions for sustainable improvement of their livelihoods. Through field trips, meeting with village groupings and inquiries from individuals and groups, 185 women were interviewed and trained on the manufacture of cocoa butter, cocoa powder and soy-chocolate drink. Cocoa butter was among others, the most adopted innovative product, followed by cocoa powder and soy-chocolate drink.

Box 18, Soa, Cameroon *)Corresponing author: [email protected] Received: 2 April 2019 / Accepted: 20 May 2020 Abstract Cameroon is the fifth largest cocoa producer in the world with approxi- mately 220,000 tons of cocoa produced annually. Many factors account for this productivity, amongst which are ageing farms and personal characteristics of farmers. The study follows a hypothetico-deductive methodology through which a random sampling technique was adopted and relevant primary data was gathered with the aid of a structured questionnaire administered to 150 cocoa farmers from 5 villages; Talba, Biakoa, Goura II, Mbangassina, and Bilomo. Correlation analysis and ordinary least squares regression were used to examine the relationship and effects between socio-economic variables and cocoa yields. Findings showed a positive correlation between the socio-economic variables and cocoa yields, socio- economic factors such as experience in cocoa farming, number of farms, source of labour, farm size, income were statistically significant at p = 1%, 5%, and 10%. Personal characteristics such as farm size, farming experience, percentage of income from cocoa farming, source of labour, number of farms per cocoa farmer, and cocoa price had a significant impact on cocoa yields.
