En Côte d’Ivoire, principalement dans le nord, on observe la présence de plusieurs formations végétales très variées allant des forêts claires et aux différents faciès de savanes. Dans la localité de Ferkessédougou, une étude a été menée dans le but de connaître la flore, la végétation et de l’usage des plantes. Cette étude a permis de recenser 192 espèces de végétales. Elles se répartissent en 148 genres et 64 familles. Parmi ces espèces, certaines ont été identifiées comme alimentaires, médicinales ou à divers autres usages. Aussi, vingt sont considérées comme des espèces ayant un statut particulier et qui nécessite une attention particulière en vue de leur protection ainsi que les habitats où elles se rencontrent. La présence de ces espèces peut constituer des indicateurs clés pour le suivi environnemental de la zone d’étude.Mots clés : Diversité végétale, Services écosystémiques, savane soudanienne, Ferkessédougou, Côte d’Ivoire.   English Title: Plant diversity and plant uses in a Sudanese savannah area: Case of the locality of Ferkessédougou (North, Côte d'Ivoire)In Ivory Coast, mainly in the north, we observe the presence of several very varied plant vegetations anging from open forests to different facies of savannah. In the locality of Ferkessédougou, a study was carried out to learn about the flora, vegetation and the use of plants. This study identified 192 species of plants. They are divided into 148 genera and 64 families. Among these species, some have been identified as food, medicinal or various other uses. Also, twenty are considered to be species with a special status and which requires very special attention for their protection as well as the habitats where they occur. The presence of these species can constitute key indicators for the environmental monitoring of the study area.

Deforestation and land degradation remain two major economic and environmental threats in Côte d’Ivoire. This study assessed land use and land cover (LULC) change and farmers’ perceptions of the drivers and effects of deforestation and land degradation in south-western Côte d’Ivoire. We used remotely sensed data to determine LULC change trends, and a household survey to collect farmers’ perceptions of deforestation and land degradation. A total of 411 households were interviewed using a structured questionnaire and the focus group discussions involved 25 farmers. Landsat image analysis reported a drastic LULC change and a conversion of forestlands into agriculture from 1987 to 2015 at a rate of 1.44%/year and 3.44%/year for dense forests and degraded forests, respectively. The household survey revealed that the major causes of deforestation perceived by farmers included population growth (79.3%), extensive agriculture (72.9%), migration (54.2%) and logging (47.7%). Land degradation evolved, from a shortened fallow period (46.7%) and an inappropriate application of inputs (31.4%). The perceived major effects linked to deforestation encompassed land degradation (70.6%), loss of biodiversity (63.8%), global warming (56.9%) and loss of livelihood assets (54.3%). Therefore, this study recommends participatory landscape planning, reforestation and capacity building of stakeholders for sustainable intensification of the production systems to reduce LULC challenges for enhanced productive and protective functions of remaining forests.
