Abstract

This study examines the economic contribution of the vanilla value chain in the SAVA region of Madagascar and its implications for household livelihoods and regional development. A qualitative case study approach was employed, drawing on field observations, focus group discussions, document analysis, and in-depth interviews with 30 participants representing key actors across the vanilla value chain, including smallholder farmers, collectors, cooperative representatives, exporters, and local stakeholders. The results indicate that vanilla production constitutes the primary source of cash income for most households and plays a significant role in regional economic activity. However, the benefits are unevenly distributed and accompanied by pronounced vulnerability to price volatility, environmental risks, and external shocks. Limited livelihood diversification and weak institutional support constrain the translation of short-term income gains into long-term economic security. Overall, the study shows that the economic contribution of the vanilla value chain remains highly conditional on governance structures and livelihood resilience.

Abstract

This study examines the economic impacts of vanilla sector degradation in rural Madagascar, with the primary aim of understanding how market instability and environmental stress affect smallholder livelihoods. The study uses a qualitative dominant mixed approach, combining household surveys, semi-structured interviews, and group discussions conducted with 20 participants drawn from major vanilla producing communities. The findings show that heavy dependence on vanilla income exposes households to pronounced vulnerability during periods of price decline, leading to reduced food security, increased labor pressure, and unstable land use practices. These impacts interact and reinforce one another, extending the consequences of sector degradation beyond income loss alone. The study demonstrates that degradation of the vanilla sector generates multidimensional livelihood risks in rural Madagascar.
