Explore options for screening sorghum varieties for drought adaptation specifically for Sahelian growing conditions (sandy soils, low P)
In lysimetric system, 28 landraces and improved varieties from Burkina and Niger were assessed for response to low phosphorus and water deficit in complete randomized bloc design with 5 replications. Low phosphorus (LP) ...
Release of 1 or 2 stable soybean varieties in each region
Twelve genotypes were planted at two sites in Malawi, Dowa and Nkotakota, under zero phosphorus application and at 24 kg/ha phosphorus application. Due to the severe drought, trials at Nkotakota were written off. The results ...
Leverage Government programmes, farmer communities
Develop and promote decentralized seed models to organize production and supply of quality groundnut seed of improved varieties, and conduct training programs to farmers and extension staff.
Impacts of Gender Mainstreaming Interventions on Women’s and Youth’s Empowerment in Burkina-Faso
The aim of the present research is to assess the impacts of gender mainstreaming interventions on women’s and youth’s empowerment (WE) in the Dryland systems program in the north region of Burkina Faso. Through the program, ...
Evaluation and demonstration of elite sorghums varieties and hybrids for specific production ecologies and uses
Demonstrations were conducted on 1ha and 0.5ha across 190 locations within Sudano-Sahelian agro-ecological zone, each technology were planted on a 50 x 25 plot, 5 fertility type/source and 9 sorghum varieties were involved ...
Support the release of resilient groundnut varieties in target regions in collaboration with NARS
In collaboration with NARS prepared release proposal for ICGV 02266 a farmer preferred variety identified in Odisha for state release. ICGV 02266 is a high pod yielding, drought tolerant variety, having medium-bold kernels, ...
Identify best options of millet production through environment by millet genotype analysis under microdosing for improved management in farmers' field in Niger
The objectives of this activity are (1) identify site specific best bet options to improve millet productivity and productions in Niger and by the same way raise awareness of farmers to enhance adoption. (2) to identify ...
Conduct agronomic studies for optimization of nutrient requirements of 2-3 released chickpea varieties
Summarizing the effect of rehizobium, location and varieties on the biological and economic responses of chickpea as summarized in the Tables below is inspiring. The results indicated that chickpea yield can be improved ...
