These systems still remain the main seed sources for almost all small-scale holder farmers in both countries. The systems perform fairly well at supplying seeds to end-users, distributing seeds at relatively low cost, and maintaining acceptable levels of seed viability and health. A tabulated list of groundnut varieties released in Niger and Senegal is provided. The trends in commercialized production of groundnut seeds in Niger and Senegal are presented. date: 2001 date_type: published publication: International Arachis Newsletter volume: 21 publisher: International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics pagerange: 24-25 refereed: TRUE issn: 1010-5824 related_url_url: http://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?as_q=Groundnut+seed+systems+in+Senegal+and+Niger&num=10&btnG=Search+Scholar&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_occt=title&as_sauthors=&as_publication=&as_ylo=&as_yhi=&as_sdt=1.&as_sdtp=on&as_sdtf=&as_sdts=5&hl=en related_url_type: author citation: Ndjeunga, J and Ntare, B R (2001) Groundnut seed systems in Senegal and Niger.
