The objective of this paper is to analyse the olive oil value chain (OVC) in the Governorate of Medenine (south-east of Tunisia) and the relationships between its main operators for an effective involvement and better performance and resilience of olive sector. Based on semi structured interviews and participatory multi-stakeholders’ workshops, OVC has been analysed and described. MACTOR approach has been applied to establish linkages among chain operators and activities in a partnership approach.
Dans le cadre du Projet de développement agropastoral et des filières associées dans le Gouvernorat de Médenine (PRODEFIL) en Tunisie, par exemple, plus de 140 kilomètres de route ont été construits. Il aurait fallu deux jours sur place pour passer en revue ces routes sur toute leur longueur. Google Earth a permis de le faire en quelques heures seulement. D’autres installations ayant fait l’objet d’investissements dans le cadre du projet, tels que des barrages et des serres, sont également visibles par satellite.
Geographic information system (GIS) data is often used to map socio-economic data with a spatial component. This data, which is obtained from multiple open-source databases, complements official statistics and generates additional spatial inputs to statistical and econometric analyses. IFAD uses impact assessments using data from face-to-face interviews in order to determine the impact of their projects on strategic goal and objectives. However, the COVID-19 pandemic meant these interviews could no longer take place.
