What contribution of agroecology to job creation in sub-Saharan Africa? The case of horticulture in the Niayes, Senegal
Considering labor allocation complexity within family farms,this study compares employment indicators between farming systems to look for agroecology’s effect on agricultural work.
Diversity in the intensity of labor requirements across the different systems was observed but no overall increase for the most agroecological. However, women working hours appear significantly increased for two groups suggesting a substitution with wage workers for the most agroecological systems.
