dc.description.abstractThis study aims to describe and compare chicken production in two farming systems in Burkina Faso. The systems were those in which crops and livestock production systems were, respectively, the most important. The study revealed that village chickens are used as sacrifices, gifts or objects of exchange for traditional medicine or for are sold for a little money under both systems. Chicken production is a free-range procedure in both systems, but there are differences in management.en
