The majority of the livestock sector remains dominated by practices despite the state’s desire to increase animal production. This study aims to analyze the enabling environment for the development of livestock farming in the Boundiali Sub-Prefecture. The results of this study are based on the use of data from surveys of 210 breeders made up of Fulani breeders, agro-breeders and cattle herders. It emerges from this study that the physical environment offers natural conditions favorable to the expansion of livestock farming. The dispersion of fields and the occupation of water points hinder the development of pastoral activity. The mobility of animals in search of pasture and water points leads to the destruction of crops and the accentuation of conflicts between farmers and breeders. Around 81% of cases of conflicts due to field damage are resolved at the village authority level. On the other hand, 19% of conflict cases were resolved by the administrative authority. The mobility of animals in search of resources is the main cause of contagious bovine pleuropneumonia (CBPP). To deal with the health risk in a context of a shortage of veterinary care, breeders resort to self-medication. The study led to the conclusion that the Boundiali Sub-Prefecture offers a relatively favorable environment for the development of livestock farming.
