Abstract

This publication is a report of the second Annual Research Planning Meeting of the ICRISAT/African Development Bank Pigeonpea Improvement Project. The 35 delegates included scientists and senior research administrators from nine countries in the southern and eastern Africa region (Kenya, Lesotho, Malawi, Namibia, Sudan, Swaziland, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia), and from ICRISAT. Progress made in collaborative pigeonpea research was reviewed at the Meeting, and detailed workplans and budgets formulated for research and extension work in each country for the 1994/95 crop season. The recommendations made at the Meeting stress several aspects, including the need for more rapid technology transfer, better availability of seed, regional nurseries for drought and wilt resistance screening, and more training programs, especially on pigeonpea utilization, in order to increase both local consumption and export.
