    Abstract

    The alarming food deficits projected for sub-Saharan African from recent production figures make it mandatory that no effort be spared in reversing the trend of declining yields. Developing better understanding of such climate-related constraints as high intensity storms, inadequate rainfall or poor rainfall distribution, high temperatures and high evaporative demands, excessive rainfall and high erodibility of soils will result in measures that can overcome or mitigate these constraints.
