Root hair length evaluated
A field trial was conducted during the dry season (May to July 2016) at Darien, Valle del Cauca-Colombia, The BASE (Bean Abiotic Stress Evaluation). The BASE trial included 80 bean genotypes: 58 belong to Mesoamerican gene ...
Farm type-specific determinants of crop productivity in Riviridzi catchment, Ntcheu Malawi
Closing the yield gap among the communities is seen as the step towards alleviating food insecurity and poverty. The casual effects of the actual yields observed in the study area shows that pooled analyses across farm ...
Climbing beans with acceptable color, resistances and fixing more than 50 kg/ha N tested in African production environments
Improved lines are both developed locally and received from CIAT headquarters in Colombia. Initial testing of lines has often been carried out with the national program of Rwanda, and in CIAT’s facilities within the campus ...
Livelihood type-specific determinants of household’s choices of land use and farm management practices, and crop productivity in Riviridzi catchment, Ntcheu Malawi
The study has found different impacts of socio-ecological factors on cropping, fertilizer use and soil and water conservation practices when analyses are done at whole sample or farm type specific. Household behaviour also ...

Compilation of seed distribution
Improved access to quality seed of improved varieties of their choices by women farmers through various mechanisms including deliberate efforts to engage women farmers in the participatory varieties selection; empowerment ...
QDS of bush beans is established as a viable alternative to certified seed
In collaboration with local seed service, development partners organizations (Dos) e.g. NGOs/farmers organizations and public extension were enabled by PABRA members to select farmers who are able to produce and market ...
Identifying genes and QTL associated with heat tolerance. Genomic regions for heat tolerance identified in interspecific progeny
Initial results with GBS suggested that introgression had occurred across a wide part of the genome when a large number of lines were considered (Figure 1). GBS also suggested that heat tolerant line INB 841 had very ...
Breeding lines with improved performance under P and water limitation. Improved lines for combined stress of drought and low P identified
Simple, 3-way and double (4 parent) crosses are created among stress tolerant parents, and including parents for high grain iron. F2 populations are screened under drought stress and promising families are harvested in ...
Smallholder Farmers’ Perceptions on Climate Change and the Use of Sustainable Agricultural Practices in the Chinyanja Triangle, Southern Africa
In developing regions with high levels of poverty and a dependence on climate
sensitive agriculture, studies focusing on climate change adaptation, planning, and policy processes,
have gained relative importance over the ...
