abstract: The genesis and the objectives of the IFAD-NARS-ICRISAT project are presented. The
workshop served as a forum to share experiences and information on strategies used to enhance
on-farm productivity in West Africa. Presentations were made by a wide array of
representatives: national and international research institutes, research networks,
nongovernmental organizations, and the private sector.
A synthesis of panel discussions is presented on participatory on-farm approaches to
increase agricultural production and adoption of improved technologies; sustainable on-farm
seed production; sorghum and millet processing; and socioeconomic aspects. An overview of
the project and work-plans for each of the five member countries are given.
