| cg.contributor.acknowledgements | The IITA/SAFGRAD Project is grateful to the Government of Burkina Faso for the support provided for its activities. In particular, the assistance of the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research in providing land and other
facilities at the Kamboins^, Saria, Farako-Ba, Vallee du Kou, and Gampela Stations, and of the Ministry of Agriculture in providing land at Lountoila, Pobe (Djibo) and Gorom-Gorom, is greatly appreciated. The collaboration of the Director of the Institute Burkinabe of Agricultural and Animal Research (IBRAZ), the Director of the 'Direction des Services Agricoles" (DSA), and the Stations Directors was essential for the successful carrying out of the 1984 season activities:
The cooperation of CIIWT, IRAT, ICRISAT, F.S.U. and ISP (University of Ouagadougou) as well as that of many ORD Directors was also instrumental in the progress achieved in 1984.
The active participation of the t>aize and Cowpea National Programs of the SAFGRAD member countries has been a key element in developing and improving the Regional Maize and Cowpea Networks that SAFGRAD has the role of promoting.
The support provided by National Governments and the collaboration of national researchers is acknowledged.
The interest, support and encouragement of the OAU/STRC SAFGRAD Coordination Office in Ouagadougou, the International Coordinator and the Director of Research of SAFGRAD, has greatly facilitated our work.
The SAFGRAD/IITA Team in Burkina Faso has been successful in accomplishing the project objectives thanks to the continuous administrative and technical backstoping provided by IITA headquarters at Ibadan, Nigeria.
All this effort has been possible with the financial assistance provided to SAFGRAD/IITA by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and by the International Development Research Center (IDRC) of Canada, to whom we express our gratitude.
