The impact of pineapple cultivation on the development of Bonoua

"The impact of pineapple cultivation on the development of the town of Bonoua" is the theme of our master's thesis. Pineapple growing has been a great success in the sub-prefecture of Bonoua, encouraging the creation of agro-industries such as SALCI in Ono, SOCABO and SIACA in Bonoua. Bonoua thus became the main centre for the development of this crop in Côte d'Ivoire, encouraging a massive influx of foreigners into the sub-prefecture. Given the historical importance of pineapple growing in the Bonoua area, many authors and observers claim that the town's development stems from the spin-offs of pineapple growing. But what role does the pineapple economy really play in the development of Bonoua? The aim of our study is to identify the impact of pineapple cultivation on the spatial, human and economic development of the town of Bonoua.
