Cet article explore l’importance de la rentabilité de l’utilisation des engrais chimiques comme facteur explicatif de leur relative faible adoption par les agriculteurs au Burkina Faso. En utilisant des données détaillées au niveau parcelle, nous estimons la productivité marginale des engrais à 19kg/ha en moyenne. Cette dernière varie considérablement en fonction des caractéristiques des sols. La rentabilité des engrais, mesurée par le rapport valeur-coût, est estimée à 1.41 sur les parcelles qui ont reçu des engrais et varie d’une région à l’autre. Concernant les parcelles sur lesquelles l’engrais n’est pas utilisé, nous trouvons que l’utilisation d’engrais serait profitable sur une grande majorité de ces parcelles au prix actuel su...
