| dc.description.abstract | Rice is the primary cereal for human consumption, serving as the staple food for nearly 50% of the global population. In Africa, the demand for rice has significantly increased, largely due to urbanization, leading to a greater reliance on imports. In Burundi, although irrigated rice cultivation was introduced in the Imbo plain to enhance food security, national production remains insufficient to meet this growing demand, resulting in substantial imports. The rice sector in Burundi is crucial for household incomes, yet it faces several challenges, such as high input costs and limited access to resources. In this context, the study aims to analyze the value chain of the rice sector by assessing the average net income generated by each actor and examining his or her interactions. To achieve these objectives, a survey was conducted with 96 actors selected using the "snowball" method, including 41 rice farmers, 20 millers, 15 wholesalers, 10 retailers, and 10 consumers. Data collection was carried out using the KoBoCollect application, followed by data cleaning and coding. The results were analyzed using EXCEL and SPSS software, allowing the research questions to be addressed. The findings indicate that the average net income generated by the actors varies significantly according to their specific roles. Producers report an average net income of 5,628,973 F per season, while millers generate 838,785 F. Wholesalers, on the other hand, show an average net income of 7,880,534 F, surpassing that of retailers, who earn 3,878,370 F. Furthermore, multiple linear regression analysis reveals that fluctuations in rice prices are significantly influenced by production costs and climatic conditions. Other variables, such as consumer demand and government policies, did not exhibit significant effects. Finally, the study highlights several challenges faced by the actors in the chain, including high input costs and limited access to these resources. Concerns related to the quality of raw rice and equipment costs are also identified. Commercialization is hindered by transportation difficulties and price fluctuations, while price volatility and income constraints represent significant obstacles for consumers. | |
