Abstract:
According to the concept of sustainable development, sustainable agriculture is based on three key functions: the production of goods and services, environmental management, and rural development. But no one can ignore the precarious nature of farms in developing countries like Madagascar. So, the question is, what are the obstacles to the development of Madagascar's agricultural sector? By analyzing the characteristics of farms in the rural commune of Ranohira, in the Ihorombe region of Madagascar, we can ascertain that different socio-economic contexts are blocking the development of the country's agricultural sector.
