Key Facts

Barde is a sub-prefecture located in the Assoungha Department of the Ouaddaï Region in eastern Chad. Situated in the central part of Assoungha, Barde lies within Chad's Sahelian zone, characterized by semi-arid landscapes that transition between the Sahara Desert to the north and the more fertile Sudanian Savanna to the south. This administrative subdivision serves as a local governance center for surrounding rural communities, with an estimated population of approximately 15,000-20,000 residents distributed across its territory of roughly 1,500 square kilometers. The sub-prefecture is divided into several smaller administrative units including villages and rural communes that organize local affairs and public services. Economically, Barde's communities primarily engage in subsistence agriculture, livestock herding, and small-scale trade, with millet, sorghum, and cattle representing important local products. The area experiences a typical Sahelian climate with a single rainy season from June to September, followed by a long dry period that challenges water availability and agricultural productivity. For those seeking detailed administrative information, postal codes and specific locality data for Barde's constituent villages and communes can be accessed through Chad's official territorial databases.
