Abstract

This study emphasizes on the contribution of organic and chemical fertilizer application to arable land on Crop production in Cameroon”. The objective of this research is to determine the correlates of fertilizer application on arable land and determine their effects on arable land production as well as decompose the arable land effected by the application of organic and chemical fertilizer. The analysis method used was the instrumental-cum-control function model in Cameroon household consumption survey. The result shows that fertilizer is strongly correlating with arable land production. The magnitude of this effect is stronger in organic fertilizer than in chemical fertilizer. Besides, land size, professional training, average annual precipitation, the use of modern technology, male household head, urban residence and the cost of fertilizer are factors positively and significantly influencing the application of fertilizer on arable land in Cameroon. In terms of policy, this study recommends that the government of Cameroon should increase and subsidize the supply of Fertilizer to farmers given the right conditions. This is an essential booster of agricultural production in this era of food security.JEL Classification: Q12, Q18, Q20

Abstract

The importance of social capital is another new stylized fact in promoting agriculture The objectives targeted are: to examine the impact of social capital in the enhancement of cocoa production, explore the determinants of social capital and to determine the challenges faced by producers in Santchou cocoa zone. Methodologically, we have constructed a social capital indicator using Multiple Correspondence Analyses. Primary data is collected in the zone and probit model use to estimate the result. The result revealed a strong correlation between social capital and agricultural production while the level of education, gender, marital status, financial status, experience in farm activity, household size and agricultural training are strongly corroborating with social capital. In addition, farm size, level of education, application of farm inputs (pesticides and fertilizers), modern equipment, climate change, access to credit and land tenure system are observed to be the major challenges of farmers in this cocoa zone. We suggest that the decision makers should promote social networking among farmers in the zone.

Abstract

This study attempts to quantify the effects of access to portable water on child health outcome and to investigate potential heterogeneities in the effect of access to portable water on child health by age distribution. Methodologically, we used the 2011/2018 Cameroon demographic and health survey via 2SLS and ivprobit models. Results show that a positive marginal change in access to portable water will result to a corresponding increase in child health, Child health of age 24-36 months is strongly affected by access to portable water. Decision makers should intensify child health access to portable water campaigns, following the WHO standards.
