Controlling Banana Bunchy Top Disease in Benin: crop protection strategies with socioeconomic perspectives

2025-07-25

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> This study combines satellite mapping, field surveillance, farmer surveys, and disease modelling to assess BBTV dynamics across Benin. It provides the first national-scale map of banana cultivation in Benin and identifies high-risk areas for targeted intervention. The study highlights the dominance of informal networks for exchange of planting material (∼80% of farmers), limited farmer awareness...
