Abstract

The important place occupied by cocoa in the economy of Côte d'Ivoire compels farmers to practice intensive farming. As a result, population growth is creating a lot of pressure on the land, involving shortage of arable land [1]. The consequence of this pressure is the decline of fallows leading to soil degradation and low crop yields.
