This document presents an innovation consisting of a hybrid meat rabbit (Soom-boumbri) created by crossing Hyla and local breeds to improve animal production in rural Burkina Faso. The rabbit shows high growth, disease resistance, and prolific reproduction (8–10 offspring per litter). The project demonstrates economic profitability, improved food security, and environmental benefits through reduced pressure on wild species. Implementation involved experimental crossbreeding and performance monitoring over three years.
