This study was consecutive to complaints agro-pastoralists in the area due to heavy mortalities recorded in cattle in general and in particular oxen. Blood samples from 473 cattle of all ages, sexes were collected in 15 villages identified by the local technical support (state and private) and by associations of agro pastoralists in the area; examined for trypanosomes using Buffy Coat technique. A total of 146 cattle (30.86 to 100) were found infected with trypanosomes: 14 (9.58 to 100) with Trypanosoma vivax, 131 (89.72 to 100) with T. congolense and 1 (0.68 to 100) with T. brucei. This study showed that trypanosomiasis was the leading cause of death oxen in the circle Kadiolo. Keywords: Prevalence; Trypanosome; Oxen; Kadiolo Diagnostic parasitological Introduction The animals were bled from the jugular vein and blood collected in tubes (type vacutainer) with anticoagulant for trypanosomes. The African Animal Trypanosomiasis is a serious obstacle to livestock technique used was the “Buffy Coat” (BCT). Blood tests were conducted development in sub-humid areas of West Africa where the basins are on site in appropriate locations, using a generator as a power source. cotton from Mali whose Kadiolo circle. The severity of this disease has increased dramatically with the introduction of zebu to meet demand Survey of farmers tensile strength expressed by cotton producers before and soon after Questionnaires were submitted to the farmers in the study area independence. The gradual replacement of indigenous cattle, Mere and to obtain information about the practical use of trypanocidal drugs N’Dama, Zebu by, has greatly increased dependence on livestock and and acaricides and assess their knowledge of trypanosomiasis and its oxen vis-à-vis the trypanocidal treatments and practice encouraged by vectors. the farmers themselves. Results Indeed, there trypanocidal treatments are the main and often the only means used in the fight against bovine trypanosomiasis. In recent Parasitological diagnosis years, significant mortality is reported in the Kadiolo circle. Disease Prevalence of bovine trypanosomiasis in villages: As given in and mortalities recorded concern, as well, the villagers’ farms (agro table 1, the average prevalence of trypanosomiasis in cattle in fifteen savings) than oxen (their tractors) which directly affects agricultural villages varied between 3.33 and 76.19 for 100 with an overall average production and threatening the livelihoods of populations. of 30.86 for 100. The proportion of infection byT. congolense amounted to 89.72 for 100 and 9.58 for 100 and 0.68 for 100 for T. vivax and T. Materials and Methods brucei respectively. The highest prevalence was found in the village of Material animal Kambérégué (76.19 to 100). Significant prevalence’s were also observed Misséni (64.70 to 100), Zégoua (50 to 100), Kafono (43.33 to 100), This study was conducted in a population of cattle of all genders, Lofiné (31.81 to 100), Fanidiama (30 to 100), Dioumatenè (26.66 to ages and breeds (Zebu, N’Dama and Zebu cross Métis from the N’Dama 100), Kadiolo (25 to 100), and Lofigué Borogoba (20 to 100). x), of which 473 blood samples were taken and analyzed for research The average prevalence of trypanosomiasis in cattle in five parasites (Trypanosoma spp.). municipalities (Table 2) varied between 18.66 and 76.19 for 100.

  • Cotton As Catalyst?: Mali's Silent Maize Revolution
    Cotton as Catalyst?: Mali’s Silent Maize Revolution Paul Laris Jeremy Foltz Department of Geography Department of Agricultural California State University Economics Long Beach University of Wisconsin Cotton Field in Southern Mali Why do farmers embrace cotton cultivation when they are well aware of the difficulties that they may confront while doing so? We can understand this paradox by conceptualizing cotton growing as part of larger systems of which farmers value cotton production for more than its potential or actual income alone (Koenig 2008). Our study’s approach Multi-scale history of cotton and maize production • Quantitative Data – FAO national data 1961-2007 – IER-Mali regional data 1984- 2007 • Crop area, production and yield – IER-Sikasso data from 1994- 2006 • Qualitative Data 2010 • ~100 household/farms Interviews with farmers in 4 • 9-12 villages in 3 sub-regions: villages in CMDT and OHVN Koutiala, Kadiolo, Bougouni zones A Brief History of the Cotton-Maize Connection • Early 1980s: Introduction and Promotion of Intensive Maize Growing – In 1981 Malian cotton company,(CMDT) launched the Maize Intensification Project – Developed fertilizing formula based on existing fertilizers that were available for cotton – Subsidized prices for maize and access to credit for fertilizers led to an increase in production New maize varieties A Brief History of the Cotton-Maize Connection • 1990s: Currency Devaluation and Expansion – 1994 the West Africa currency (CFA) devalued 50% – Cotton price rises as cost of does fertilizer – Expansion of both fertilizer use and area farmed – Cotton production increases and maize booms, millet and sorghum growth is flat. – Cotton yields fall and the argument is made that cotton area expands too rapidly resulting in yield declines (Benjaminsen).

  • Cotton Production and Land Degradation in Mali Factsheet
    Cotton production and land degradation in Mali Factsheet In Mali, about a quarter of the population, i.e. 4 million people earn their living from cotton production. At the beginning of 2019, the cotton farmer confederation set an ambitious target to bring the cotton production to one million tons of cottonseeds during the 2019/2020 season. With a production of 700,000 tonnes in 2019/2020, the goal was not achieved, but it nevertheless highlighted the interest in increasing the country’s production, cotton being the predominant crop in the agricultural sector. While analysing the contribution of cotton production to the economy in Mali, it is important to consider not only the gross output and gross value, but also the input expenditures.
