Published: September 2021

Au Niger, l’élevage caprin occupe une place importante dans l’économie des ménages ruraux. Une étude a été conduite dans la région de Maradi afin de caractériser les pratiques de gestion des élevages des chèvres rousses et analyser leurs contraintes. Ainsi, 180 agro-éleveurs répartis dans 12 villages de la région ont été questionnés. Les thèmes abordés au cours des interviews ont porté sur : les caractéristiques du ménage, les objectifs de production, le mode de conduite des animaux, la gestion de l’alimentation, la santé animale ainsi que les contraintes auxquelles les producteurs font face. Les résultats ont révélé que la majorité (72,8%) des propriétaires des caprins sont des femmes. Les caprins sont élevés en priorité comme épargne pour subvenir aux besoins du ménage. Pendant la saison sèche, plus de la moitié (51%) des éleveurs font recours à l’achat du son de blé pour la complémentation des animaux. Diverses sources des compléments minéraux sont utilisées, notamment le sel de cuisine, les pierres à lécher, le natron et le sel de Bilma. La pénurie d’aliments a été identifiée comme la contrainte majeure de l’élevage caprin (57,8%). Elle est suivie par les maladies animales (17,2%) et la stabulation en saison de pluies (7, 8%). L’amélioration de l’élevage de la chèvre rousse passe par la prise en compte de toutes les contraintes de production.
English title: Practices and constraints of Maradi red goat breeding in rural areas in Niger
In Niger, goat farming plays an important role in the economy of rural households. A study was conducted in the Maradi region to characterize the management practices of red goat farms and analyze their constraints. Thus, 180 agro-pastoralists spread out in 12 villages of the region were questioned. The themes addressed during the interviews included: household characteristics, production objectives, animal husbandry, feed management, animal health and the constraints faced by producers. The results revealed that the majority (72,8%) of goat owners were women. The feeding system is based on natural pastures and crop residues. During the dry season, more than half (51%) of the farmers used wheat bran for animal complementation. Various sources of mineral supplements are used, including cooking salt, lickstones, natron and Bilma salt. Food shortage has been identified as the major constraint to goat farming (57.8%), followed by animal diseases (17.2%) and stalling during the rainy season (7.8%). The improvement of the breeding of the red goat requires the taking into account of all the constraints of production.

Published: September 2021

AbstrakSilat merupakan seni mempertahankan diri yang terkenal dalam kalangan masyarakat Melayu dan tersebar luas di Nusantara. Namun, tidak semua dalam kalangan masyarakat mengetahui tentang adanya proses perubatan secara tradisional di dalam persilatan dan kedua-duanya amat memerlukan antara satu sama lain. Dalam erti kata lain, perubatan tradisional dalam seni silat telah bergerak seiring dengan pembelajaran ilmu silat dan berfungsi sebagai ikhtiar untuk menyembuhkan pelbagai jenis penyakit. Aktiviti perubatan tradisional di dalam persilatan ini juga masih lagi diamalkan di Kelantan, yang juga terkenal dengan ritual perubatan melalui seni persembahan seperti Main Puteri dan Mak Yong. Walau bagaimanapun proses perubatan dalam seni silat yang dikaji berbeza dengan Main Puteri dan Mak Yong di mana ia tidak dipertontonkan di hadapan khalayak ramai. Mengungkap secara lebih mendalam mengenai perubatan dalam seni silat, pengkaji akan menerangkan objektif kajian ini iaitu apakah jenis penyakit yang dialami oleh pesakit dan bagaimana proses perubatan dilakukan oleh gurulatih. Di samping itu, pengkaji telah menjalankan kaedah pemerhatian serta pemerhatian secara ikut serta dan menemubual beberapa orang gurulatih seni silat itu sendiri.
AbstractSilat is an art of self-defense that is well known among the Malay community and is widespread throughout the Malay Archipelago. However, the society might not be aware that in silat there is a practice of traditional healing and both need one another. In other words, traditional healing in silat have been moving along with the learning aspect of the martial art and serves as an effort to cure several illnesses suffered by a patient. Silat healing activities are still being practiced in Kelantan, which is known for its traditional healing rituals through the performance of Main Teri and Mak Yong. The healing process in the Seni Silat Pusaka Gayong Malaysia, Kelantan branch is different from Main Teri and Mak Yong and can’t be shown to the public. In looking deeper into the healing process in silat, the researcher analyses the objectives of this study which covered the types of illnesses experienced by patients and how healing processes were done by the ‘gurulatih’. The research was conducted using the participant-observation method and interviews with a few silat ‘gurulatih’

Competitive mode: Vertical control and contractual design in the poultry industry - a comparative study between Brazil and Denmark
Authors: Similä Jan Ole 
Published: September 2021

How do you see the competition in your industry? How do you see your business dealing with the actual situation? Thereare of course several and different answers to these questions, depending on your competitive mode. Maybe it is a choice of market strategy, cost strategy, resource-based strategy, institutional strategy, or my choice of approach,namely a structural strategy. More precisely, I am looking at the economic organization of production, what Williamson (1991) names second-order economizing – regarding the governance structures. We are not doing the mathematics in trying to calculate efficiency, losses or benefits, as we do not have access to that kind of data. In some countries it would be possible to get hold of economic data that would make it possible to calculate possible benefits, while in other countries, companies are not required to go public with their accountings. You will find that companies deliberately tamperwith their financial statements (‘cook their books’), when asked about details in the economy of the production. Going along with the possibilities, what we do want to achieve is a better understanding of why different governance structures are chosen within the same industry. In this article we look at two companies engaged in large-scale industrial production,where one company is located in Brazil and the other in Denmark. The setups of the companies are completely different, where in Brazil strong vertical integration and control is emphasized, this is not equally prominent in Denmark.
