Adoption et impact des innovations technologiques agricoles dans les filières maïs et arachide au Sénégal

Diagne, Aminata 27 January 2024 (has links)
Cette thèse s’intéresse à la problématique de l’adoption et de l’impact des innovations technologiques en agriculture. Elle a comme objectif général d’analyser l’adoption et l’impact des innovations technologiques agricoles diffusées par le Programme de Productivité Agricole en Afrique de l’Ouest (PPAAO) dans les filières maïs et arachide au Sénégal. Les innovations sont des variétés améliorées de semences de maïs pluvial et une machine permettant de traiter l’huile d’arachide contre les aflatoxines appelée table de traitement de l’aflatoxine. Pour répondre à l’objectif de notre thèse, au terme d’une introduction générale, nous avons élaboré deux chapitres faisant recours à une approche quantitative et un chapitre utilisant une approche qualitative. Le premier chapitre quantitatif a porté sur l’analyse de la dynamique et les facteurs d’adoption des semences améliorées de maïs au Sénégal Orientale et en Haute Casamance. Les résultats montrent que l’adoption des semences améliorées de maïs au Sénégal suit une dynamique de plusieurs groupes d’adoptant, et que les facteurs d’adoption peuvent être hétérogènes entre les groupes. Le deuxième chapitre quantitatif a évalué l’influence du fait d’être une femme sur l’adoption des innovations technologiques agricoles et déterminé les facteurs d’hétérogénéité des résultats trouvés à travers une méta-analyse portant sur 124 études empiriques. Les résultats ont montré qu’en moyenne le fait d’être une femme a une influence négative et significative sur l’adoption d’une technologie agricole. Cette influence diffère cependant, lorsque l’on analyse en fonction du type de technologie agricole. En effet, elle est négative et significative pour les semences améliorées et non significative pour les technologies de types fertilisants ou bonnes pratiques agricoles. Le chapitre qualitatif a étudié l’adoption et les effets des tables de traitement de l’huile artisanale d’arachide chez des groupements du Bassin arachidier au Sénégal. Les résultats montrent que l’aflatoxine est un phénomène dont les méfaits ne sont pas très connus par les groupements de femmes trituratrices rencontrés. L’adoption de la table s’est faite totalement chez certains groupements et partiellement chez d’autres. L’adoption de la table a augmenté les revenus des groupements de femmes, amélioré l’autonomie financière des femmes, amélioré leurs connaissances en aflatoxines, et renforcé leurs capacités. / This thesis focuses on the issue of the adoption and impact of technological innovations in agriculture. Its general objective is to analyze the adoption and impact of agricultural technological innovations disseminated by the West African Agricultural Productivity Program (WAAPP) in the maize and groundnut sectors in Senegal. Innovations are improved varieties of rain-fed maize and a machine for treating peanut oil against aflatoxins called the aflatoxin treatment table. To achieve the objective of our thesis, after a general introduction we have developed two chapters using a quantitative approach and a chapter using a qualitative approach. The first quantitative chapter focused on the analysis of the dynamic and adoption factors of improved maize seeds in Eastern Senegal and Haute Casamance. Results show that the path of improved maize seeds adoption Senegal follows a dynamic of several adopter groups and that the adoption factors can be heterogeneous between the groups. The second quantitative chapter evaluated the gender influence on agricultural technological innovations adoption and determined the factors of the results heterogeneity found through a meta-analysis involving 124 empirical studies. The results showed that on average being a woman has a negative and significant influence on the agricultural technologies adoption. This influence differs however when analyzed according to the type of agricultural technologies. Indeed it is negative and significant for improved seeds and not significant for fertilizer-type technologies or good agricultural practices. The qualitative chapter studied the adoption and effects of artisanal peanut oil treatment tables in groups in the peanut basin of Senegal. Results show that aflatoxin is a phenomenon whose consequences are not well known by the groups of women encountered. The adoption of the table was made entirely in some groups and partially in others. The adoption of the table increased the income of women's groups, improved the financial autonomy of women, improved their knowledge of aflatoxins, and strengthened their capacities.

Essays on the Economics of Technological Change and the Environment

Dugoua, Eugenie January 2018 (has links)
Technological change bears the promise of addressing environmental problems without reneging on economic development. However, taping its full potential requires an understanding of its drivers and barriers. The three chapters of this dissertation are a modest attempt at casting light on some of the factors that can foster technological change towards more environmental-friendly technologies. In Chapter One, I provide the first quantitative evidence that the Montreal Protocol, and its following amendments to protect the ozone layer, triggered a large increase in research and innovation on alternatives to ozone-depleting molecules. To do this, I use the full text of patents and scientific articles and implement a difference-in-differences strategy and a synthetic control method. To compare molecules’ chemical and industrial characteristics, I construct descriptive variables by applying machine learning techniques to the documents’ text. In Chapter Two, I investigate barriers to adopting solar lanterns in the context of rural Indian households. I design and implement a randomized controlled trial on people’s willingness to pay for such lanterns, and find that, despite the relative simplicity of the product, information barriers to adopting solar lanterns remain high. Chapter Three theoretically investigates firm-level barriers to green technological change. I outline a mechanism that explains why coordination at the industry level might be necessary. I argue that radical innovations (such as electric cars) require complementary innovations in interdependent components, and show that, when technological change requires investment by both suppliers and producers, coordination within an industry is needed and can be difficult to obtain.
