Pastoral Surveillance Bulletin No. 36 (August–September 2025) 28/10/2025
Summary :
The Pastoral Surveillance Bulletin No. 36 (August–September 2025), published by Action Against Hunger – Mali Mission, provides an overview of pastoral conditions in Gao and Timbuktu regions. Seasonal rains have improved pasture availability, vegetation cover, and livestock health, easing tensions between herders and farmers. Access to water remains satisfactory on 61% of monitored sites. However, security challenges persist, with continued livestock thefts and extortion by armed groups. Market exchange terms remain unfavorable to herders, and institutional support for the pastoral sector is limited. The report calls for strengthening veterinary services, conflict prevention mechanisms, and sustainable management of rangeland resources to improve livelihoods and food security in northern Mali.

2025 Regional Mid-Season Biomass Bulletin 07/10/2025
Summary :
The 2025 Mid-Season Regional Biomass Bulletin by Action Against Hunger (ACF) provides an overview of agro-environmental conditions across the Sahel and West Africa. It reports that overall biomass production is average to good, except in specific zones of Mali, Niger, Chad, and northern Burkina Faso where vegetation remains below normal. Irregular rainfall and uneven temporal distribution have delayed the agricultural season in several pastoral regions, affecting pasture regeneration and water availability for livestock. The bulletin warns of potential rapid degradation of natural resources and emphasizes the need for continuous agro-pastoral monitoring through the end of the season to prevent food and livelihood crises.

Pastoral Surveillance Bulletin No. 36 (August–September 2025) 28/10/2025
Summary :
The Mauritania Pastoral Surveillance Bulletin No. 36 (August–September 2025), published by Action Against Hunger (ACF), reports generally favorable pastoral conditions due to continued rainfall during the season. Pastures and water points are well replenished in most wilayas, improving livestock body condition. However, some areas still experience localized forage deficits, particularly in Hodh El Chargui and Gorgol. Animal diseases remain under control with no major outbreaks reported. Livestock prices remain high, while cereal prices continue to rise, leading to unfavorable terms of trade for herders. The report highlights the importance of strengthening animal health monitoring and promoting sustainable management of pastoral resources.

Willingness to Pay for Natural Disaster Insurance: A Field Study in Burkina Faso 04/11/2025
Summary :
This paper investigates urban households’ willingness to pay (WTP) for flood insurance in Burkina Faso, emphasizing the role of information and trust in insurance demand. Using data from a field survey conducted in September 2022 with 593 respondents, the authors find that 71.3% of individuals are willing to pay for insurance, though most have a WTP lower than the expected loss. Being well-informed about flood risks increases WTP, but the relationship is not linear. Conversely, reliance on family networks and risk aversion reduce WTP, while trust in government and private insurance raises it. The study highlights the need to strengthen communication policies and institutional trust to promote climate-risk insurance as an effective adaptation mechanism in urban areas.
