| Abstract | L’objectif de cette etude etait d’analyser la rentabilite economique des systemes de production des parcs a karites du nord-Benin en relation avec les adaptations aux changements climatiques. Les donnees primaires relatives aux caracteristiques socio-economiques des producteurs, aux strategies d’adaptation developpees et aux inputs et outputs de production ont ete collectees aupres de 466 exploitants des parcs a karite des Communes de Banikoara, Bassila et Bembereke. La methode utilisee pour l’etude etait basee sur le modele de la rentabilite economique de COBB-DOUGLAS. Il ressort des analyses que 70,71% des producteurs de la zone d’etude developpent des strategies d’adaptation aux changements climatiques. Il s’agit notamment du reboisement (34,3%), de la diversification des activites agricoles (30,6%), de la pratique culturelle (26%) et de l’adaptation du systeme cultural qui est tres peu pratiquee (9,2%). Ces reajustements pour la plupart techniques operes par les producteurs ont des repercutions sur les elements de leur compte d’exploitation. Par ailleurs, le systeme cultural et la diversification des activites agricoles apparaissent comme les types d’adaptations les plus economiquement rentables au seuil de 1%. The objective of this study was to analyze the economic production systems profitability for the parklands of sheas in the North of Benin in relationship with adaptations to climate change. Primary data on socio-economic characteristics of producers, adaptation strategies developed, and inputs and outputs of production were collected from 466 parkland of sheas’farmers in Banikoara, Bassila and Bembereke Municipalities. The method used for the study was based on the COBB-DOUGLAS model of economic profitability. The analysis shows that 70.71% of the producers in the study area develop adaptation strategies to climate change. These include reforestation (34.3%), diversification of agricultural activities (30.6%), cultural practice (26%) and adaptation of the cropping system which is practiced very little (9.2%). These adjustments mostly technical, implemented by producers have repercussions on their economic performances. In addition, cropping system and diversification of agricultural activities appear to be the types of adaptations the most economically profitable at the level of 1%.
