Abstract

A socio-economic analysis of a sample of farms in Northern Cote d’'Ivoire revisits two debates about the evolution of farming systems in sub-Saharan Africa. Taking into account the diversity of farming systems, the debates "“Boserup vs. Malthus"” and “"competition vs. complementarity”" between cotton and food crops become better informed and less straightforward.
