Résumé
Small-scale pineapple production (SSPP) emerged in Lower Côte-d'Ivoire for cannery processing in the 1960s. As such, it disappeared at the beginning of the 1980s, but was at that time revived as pineapple production for export as a fresh fruit, facing a new collapse in the mid-2000s. This paper (1) presents the organizational and institutional framework which enabled the rise of such an intensive, non-traditional export production (from contract farming to multiplex contractual relations), (2) characterizes the producers (mostly foreign tenants from Burkina Faso who got land through leases), and (3) discusses the sustainability of SSP through an analysis of the canning and fresh-fruit export production crisis.
