A Farmer’s Guide to Profitable Groundnut Production in Nigeria
Nigeria used to be the highest groundnut exporting country in Africa, but a combination of drought, rosette and other diseases wiped out groundnut production in the 1970s. ICRISAT, IAR and partners have developed and ...
Testing the GLDC scaling framework: Design, Performance, and Gaps
Accelerating the adoption of new technology – improved varieties and management practices – by smallholders remains a challenge for agricultural research and extension systems, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. The ...
Post-harvest management of aflatoxin contamination in groundnut
Aflatoxin contamination in groundnut by Aspergillus section Flavi is a major pre-and post-harvest problem causing kernel-quality loss. Post-harvest aflatoxin contamination is caused initially by infestation of aflatoxigenic ...
Cross-coordination with Sub-Regional Organizations to Maximize Scale and Impact
The CRP-GLDC will benefit end users and create economic opportunities through contracts and partnerships with Sub-Regional Organizations (SROs). While GLDC’s target countries are limited, benefits from Flagship Program ...
Ex-ante nutrition security impacts of Research and Technology Options for Grain Legumes and Dryland Cereals in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia
In this report, GLDC technologies were assessed and ranked based on their potential impact on nutrition security. Key findings suggest that in west and central Africa, the technologies with the largest positive impacts on ...
