bibo:abstract "Participatory variety selection (PVS) is an approach which provides a wide choice of varieties to\r\nfarmers to evaluate in their own environment using their own resources for increasing production.\r\nIt enhances farmer’s access to diverse crop varieties, increases production and ensures food security\r\nand helps faster dissemination and adoption of pre and released varieties. It allows varietal selection\r\nin targeted areas at cost-effective and timely manner and helps promotion of community seed\r\nproduction and community seed banks. Therefore, a variety developed through PVS usually meets\r\ndemand of different stakeholders. Farmers in Singida and Iramba districts in central Tanzania were\r\nfound to be growing land races which were low yielding, long maturing, drought and disease susceptible,\r\nas no variety had previously been released in Tanzania. Through PVS a broader choice of varieties\r\nthat matched farmer needs in adaptation and quality traits was offered for evaluation. As such PVS was\r\nused to introduce, evaluate, release and promote for adoption finger millet varieties in Central and\r\nNorthern Tanzania. Farmers selected and adopted new varieties of a higher utility (a combination of\r\nimproved agronomic traits, higher yield, and improved quality). Through PVS Tanzania released\r\nher first finger millet varieties (U15 and P224). Adoption of the varieties was very high as farmers\r\nassociated with the varieties; and affordable high quality seed was made available as Quality Declared\r\nSeed (QDS) produced by the target farmer groups. Preferred traits differed between the gender groups;\r\nwomen preferred risk averting traits like short duration, drought tolerance, compact heads and\r\ndisease resistance while male preferred market related traits (high yield, brown colour and big head."^^xsd:string;
