Moench) for Simulating Growth and Yield in Contrasting Environments in Nigeria %U http://oar.icrisat.org/11453/ %X In Semi-arid Nigeria, sorghum production is regarded as a major cereal for food grain and fodder, predominantly grown under rainfed conditions. With demand for sorghum outweighing its current production. there is a need to exploer a wide range of sorghums adopted to contrasting production environments. %Z The authors would like to thank ICRISAT for providing institutional support to conduct the experimental work under the CRP ids, FMA,HAA,AN acknowledges the CRP GLDC for funding their time
