dc.description.abstractLike traditional agricultural activities, market gardening is also vulnerable to the effects of hydro-climatic hazards, which are more and more frequent in Benin. This research is particularly interested in the hydro-climatic risks perceived and the needs in weather-climate services expressed by the market gardeners of the District of Athiémé. The data used relate to perceived hydro-climatic nuisances as well as the needs for meteorological services expressed by the producers. A questionnaire developed around the main aspects of the research was used to organize individual interviews with 304 producers. Parameters of the descriptive statistics were used for data processing and analysis. Similarly, to test homogeneity of responses, the Informal Consensus Factor (ICF) is used. The main risk factors mentioned relate to floods (98%), irregular rains (90%), unpredictable seasons (89%), heavy rains (87%), late start and / or early end of rains. (85%), pockets of drought (80, 60%), high temperatures (70%), early floods (52%) and heavy rains (50%). The meteorological and weather service requirements expressed relate to timely access to information on weather forecasts (95%), seasonal forecasts (65%) and hydrological forecasts (65%) and the assessment of the weather. level of water stress in plants (60%). These preliminary results deserve to be further developed in order to guide decisions in the direction of promoting climate resilient market gardening in Benin.en_US
