Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor [L.] Moench) is one of the most important cereal crops grown in the dry savannas and semi-arid regions of West Africa under rain-fed conditions. Although total sorghum production in Nigeria has increased over the years, the average grain yield on farmers' fields has remai...

Infestation of cereals and cowpeas by Striga species constitute a major constraint to increased crop pro-ductivity in the savannas of northern Nigeria. Field surveys were undertaken in Jigawa State, Nigeria in2012 to assess (i) the level and extent of Strgia infestation of cereal and cowpea field...

A study was conducted in Kano and Bauchi States in the dry Savanna of northern Nigeria to determine Striga incidence and infestation and relate these to soil fertility status and yield of maize. A three-stage sampling technique was used to select communities and fields in targeted Local Governmen...
