Modern Farmer Organizations (FOs) since the 90s have been advocated as solutions to the problems of small producers, particularly in the Cameroonian and Chadian regions of the Lake Chad Basin which have been affected by several security and environmental crises. Despite the proliferation of this organisations in the area, till date, the trend in the region reveals that FOs are underperforming and unsustainable. Adopting a multidimensional approach to assess the performance of 51 FOs in the study area and profile successful FOs, we built a composite performance indicator of FOs using multiple correspondent analysis. The Ascending hierarchical cluster method was used to classify producers by performance. The results show that 8.94% of producers are in good-performance FOs, 51.4% in medium-performance FOs and 39.66% in poor-performance FOs. The success profile of FOs shows that the factors that contribute most to their performance are having: experienced office members, a manager with good level of education, resources coming from diversified activities, a well-structured leadership and a motivation oriented towards diversification, storage or processing. FOs in rural areas, FOs led by women and Groups in Chad are the most affected by the performance problem. The heaviest constraints as perceived by low-performing FOs are related to the lack of capital and flood problems, while successful FOs complaint about low prices in the market and climate change.
