Les paysans de l'ouest Cameroun face au crédit agricole institutionnel

Emmanuel Foko

Économie rurale, 1994, vol. 219, issue 1, 12-15

Abstract: [fre] L'analyse des problèmes liés à la distribution du crédit agricole institutionnel à l'Ouest Cameroun sur la base de l'expérience du FONADER dans le département de la Mifi fait ressortir deux groupes de contraintes. D'une part, on a les problèmes liés à la structure interne de l'organisme notamment l'insuffisance de l'information sur ses activités de crédit, la complexité des procédures, et la nature très contraignante des garanties exigées. D'autre part, il y a les problèmes externes à l'organisme notamment la méfiance des populations vis-à-vis des structures bancaires, la faible rentabilité des activités agricoles et le taux très élevé des impayés enregistrés. L'expérience du crédit adhérent a également été analysée. Sa contribution à l'amélioration du système de distribution est notable, mais il doit faire face à l'insuffisance des fonds qui lui sont alloués. [eng] West cameroon peasants in face institutional credit . The problems of credit distribution of agricultural credit by institutional organisations in West Cameroon have been analysed through the FONADER experience in the Mifi area. This analysis brings to the fore two kinds of contraints. The first ones are caused by internal structures of the organisation, essentially because of insufficient information about its own credit activity, the complexity of procedures, and the amount of the required guarantees. The consequencies are the results of external problems, mainly due to suspicion of the population towards the banking establishment, the low profitability rate of agricultural businesses, and the very high ratio of repayment failures. The experience of the "adherent credit" has been analysed too. It has significantly improved the distribution system, but has to deal with the insufficience of funds which are allocated to it.
