Pigeonpea Technology Exchange ñ Strategies, Experiences, and Lessons Learnt in Eastern and Southern Africa

Abstract

The Pigeonpea Improvement Project for Eastern and Southern Africa was initiated in 1992 with the goal of increasing pigeonpea productivity in the region. By 1996, the project had made significant progress in developing improved varieties, understanding markets, and identifying constraints to consumption. How could the technologies and knowledge developed through the combined efforts of ICRISAT and its collaborators be disseminated to achieve widespread impact
