N. E. aLocal communities demand for food tree species and the potentialities of their landscapes in two ecological zones of Burkina Faso.h[electronic resource] c2013 aWe examined demand and supply of Food Tree Species (FTS) products in Burkina Faso. The hypotheses were: 1) demand for FTS products by local communities exceeds what can be sustainably extracted, and 2) local communities of the Sudanian zone have access to more diverse FTS products compared to Sahelian zone. Surveys were conducted in 300 households and 360 quadrats in landscapes surrounding 6 villages to determine the diversity, richness and availability of FTS.The results indicate that local communities tend to exploit FTS which are rare to find or absent in the landscape surrounding their village. While the range of FTS largely exploited tends to coincide across the two ecological zones, the diversity and density of the preferred FTS are discordant between the two zones. The results of the present study further support the need for conservation and restoration strategies to sustain the local communities demand for FTS products. afood consumption afood security aindigenous knowledge aConsumo alimentar aSegurança alimentar aConhecimento indígena aDiversidade aDiversity aEtnobotânica quantitativa aQuantitative Ethnobotany1 aLAMIEN, N.1 aEULER, A.
