Despite population pressure and the urgent need for dairy production to be doubled by 2050, there is still a significant deficit in milk production in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Lack of quantity and quality feed is one of the major factors causing unsatisfactory milk yields. This Working Paper ass...

One of the major problems of coconut farmers is the lack of well-adapted and high yielding coconut varieties. Other related problems are the insufficient number of well-trained coconut breeders and efficient breeding research techniques to develop improved varieties. On 20-25 June 1994, GTZ, BURO...

Achieving and maintaining global food security is challenged by changes in population, income, and climate, among other drivers. Assessing these challenges and possible solutions over the coming decades requires a rigorous multidisciplinary approach. To answer this challenge, the International Fo...
