| dc.description.abstract | This catalogue describes a suite of technologies related to the modernization of sorghum & millet production in Africa. It is based upon the combined efforts of the Project Platform for Agricultural Solutions (ProPAS), an information internet site, and the Technologies for African Agricultural Transformation, a large collaborative program that is deploying agricultural solutions across the continent. Both activities are based upon the imperative to better connect proven technologies to those who need them, but each undertakes this goal in a very different manner. Millet and sorghum are one of TAAT’s priority commodities because of their huge importance to food and nutritional security, and rural development in general across Africa. They are also targeted as an agro-industrial crop for processing and trade within regions markets. In the course of its compilation, ProPAS has accumulated several technologies that specifically address these commodities and we have compiled them into a 2 “Technology Catalogue” designed to advance understanding and encourage adoption and investment into the proven agricultural solutions that advance these crops. This is one of several catalogues produced as a joint ProPAS-TAAT activity. For more information on the featured technologies or other solutions toward transformative impact on production of small grain crops in Sub-Saharan Africa, contact the Compact Leader Dr. Dougbedji Fatondji from the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT) by email at d.fatondji@cgiar.org. |
