in private sector investment in crop improvement,&#13;
research and development, especially in crops&#13;
that provide hybrid cultivar options. The sorghum&#13;
and pearl millet hybrid seed industry has a wellestablished&#13;
base in India and has derived&#13;
immense economic benefits from hybrid parents&#13;
research at ICRISAT. Pigeonpea hybrids are also&#13;
now becoming a commercially viable proposition.</mods:abstract><mods:classification authority="lcc">Agriculture-Farming, Production, Technology, Economics</mods:classification><mods:originInfo><mods:dateIssued encoding="iso8061">2005</mods:dateIssued></mods:originInfo><mods:originInfo><mods:publisher>International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics</mods:publisher></mods:originInfo><mods:genre>Monograph</mods:genre></mods:mods>
