La Zambie devient le point central du soutien \u00e0 la recherche agricole en Afrique australe avec l'annonce par l'IITA de l'\u00e9tablissement de son p\u00f4le administratif pour l'Afrique australe dans le pays afin de soutenir ses activit\u00e9s de recherche pour le d\u00e9veloppement dans la r\u00e9gion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Le p\u00f4le desservira la Zambie, le Malawi, le Mozambique, le Zimbabwe, le Lesotho, le Swaziland, le Botswana, la Namibie, l'Afrique du Sud et, selon les besoins, la RD Congo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Selon le Dr Bryan Harvey, pr\u00e9sident du conseil d'administration de l'IITA, l'institut travaille, depuis 2004, sur la mani\u00e8re de fonctionner plus efficacement en Afrique subsaharienne. \u00c0 cette fin, l'IITA a d\u00e9cid\u00e9 de concentrer ses syst\u00e8mes de soutien administratif en trois points focaux : l'Ouest, l'Est et le Sud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

L'Ouest sera couvert par IITA-Nig\u00e9ria, et l'Est par IITA-Tanzanie. Et apr\u00e8s de m\u00fbres d\u00e9lib\u00e9rations, l'institut a choisi la Zambie comme point focal pour le Sud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Le Dr Harvey ajoute que le choix du pays pour desservir l'Afrique australe n'a pas \u00e9t\u00e9 facile. L'IITA a d\u00fb choisir entre le Mozambique, le Malawi, la Zambie, le Zimbabwe et l'Afrique du Sud, qui \u00e9taient tous d'excellents candidats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

La d\u00e9cision d'implanter le p\u00f4le administratif de l'Afrique australe dans le pays \u00e9tablit \u00e9galement de mani\u00e8re effective l'IITA-Zambie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

La cr\u00e9ation du p\u00f4le a \u00e9t\u00e9 officiellement annonc\u00e9e par le Dr Harvey lors d'une tribune ouverte de la Journ\u00e9e mondiale de l'alimentation parrain\u00e9e par l'IITA, qui s'est tenue le 15 octobre \u00e0 Lusaka. Plac\u00e9e sous le th\u00e8me \u201c Le r\u00f4le de la recherche et de la formation dans le d\u00e9veloppement du secteur agricole de la Zambie \u201d, cette tribune a \u00e9t\u00e9 co-organis\u00e9e avec l'Universit\u00e9 de Zambie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pour formaliser sa pr\u00e9sence dans le pays, le Conseil d'administration de l'IITA tient la deuxi\u00e8me de ses r\u00e9unions biannuelles \u00e0 Lusaka cette semaine, du 17 au 20 octobre, afin de discuter, entre autres questions, des moyens de faire progresser le partenariat entre l'IITA et la Zambie et de d\u00e9finir un plan op\u00e9rationnel pour le p\u00f4le.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

L'IITA a une longue et fructueuse histoire de collaboration avec le pays. Au d\u00e9but des ann\u00e9es 1980, l'institut, en collaboration avec l'Institut de recherche agricole de Zambie et d'autres partenaires nationaux, a lanc\u00e9 un vaste programme pour lutter contre deux des ravageurs les plus mortels du manioc \u2013 la cochenille et l'acarien vert \u2013 sauvant ainsi des milliers d'hectares de cette culture. Les succ\u00e8s obtenus en Zambie ont \u00e9t\u00e9 reproduits dans d'autres pays producteurs de manioc en Afrique subsaharienne, sauvant ainsi un nombre encore plus grand d'exploitations de manioc de la d\u00e9vastation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00c0 propos de l'IITA<\/b> L'Afrique fait face \u00e0 des probl\u00e8mes complexes qui p\u00e8sent lourdement sur l'agriculture et la vie des populations. Nous d\u00e9veloppons des solutions agricoles avec nos partenaires pour lutter contre la faim et la pauvret\u00e9. Nos recherches pour le d\u00e9veloppement (R4D), maintes fois r\u00e9compens\u00e9es, reposent sur une r\u00e9flexion cibl\u00e9e et autoris\u00e9e, ancr\u00e9e dans les besoins de d\u00e9veloppement de l'Afrique subsaharienne. Nous travaillons avec des partenaires en Afrique et au-del\u00e0 pour r\u00e9duire les risques pour les producteurs et les consommateurs, am\u00e9liorer la qualit\u00e9 et la productivit\u00e9 des cultures, et g\u00e9n\u00e9rer de la richesse gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 l'agriculture.
