Abstract

Cet article analyse les raisons des faibles performances dans la lutte contre l’insécurité alimentaire et la pauvreté au Burkina Faso malgré les performances macroéconomiques enregistrées par le pays au cours des dernières décennies. Il analyse ensuite, à l’aide d’un modèle d’Équilibre Général Calculable, la capacité d’un investissement public dans l’agriculture à améliorer la situation actuelle des pauvres. Plusieurs éléments se conjuguent pour expliquer la persistance de la pauvreté et de l’insécurité alimentaire : la forte croissance démographique qui implique une faible croissance du PIB (Produit Intérieur Brut) par tête ; la faible contribution de l’agriculture à la croissance globale ; la persistance d’un chômage urbain ; et une répartition des fruits de la croissance peu favorable aux pauvres. L’investissement public dans l’agriculture, en augmentant la productivité dans les activités agricoles, permet des progrès en milieu rural et surtout en milieu urbain.
