Assessment of climate change impact and adaptation strategy for millet in the Sudano‑Sahelian region of Niger
(2024-12)Pearl millet is an important food and fodder crop in West African semi-arid regions. Climate change is projected to have a significant impact on the productivity of the crops in these regions. Adaptation strategies to sustain agricultural production are therefore urgently required to sustain millet productivity. The Decision Support System for Agrotechnology Transfer (DSSAT) CERES-Millet model was used to assess the impact of climate change and adaptation strategies on millet in Niger. Three millet ... -
Combined use of improved maize hybrids and nitrogen application increases grain yield of maize, under natural Striga hermonthica infestation
(2024)Striga hermonthica (Del.) Benth infestation is one of the major constraints to maize production in the Nigeria savannas. The application of nitrogen fertilizer to Striga-resistant hybrids may reduce Striga infection and increase grain yields. The objective of this study was to assess the performance of six maize hybrids at low (30 kg ha−1) and high (120 kg ha−1) nitrogen application under natural infestation with Striga in northern Nigeria in 2014 and 2015. The two nitrogen rates and the six hybrids ...
