| Résumé : |
A regional workshop for agricultural research staff in western and central Africa was convened in 1994 to identify the constraints that hamper sorghum production in the main agroecological zones in the region. Participants representing 17 countries of the Sorghum Network demonstrated the need for a regional approach to research in order to obtain data which can help transform traditional agriculture through the transfer of improved technologies.
Mainly in tabular form, the paper presents working-group assessments of constraints to and methods of technology transfer, proposals for the establishment of a regional Research Network Center for sorghum, and prioritized research projects. A steering committee with 07 members has already begun its work and has recommended a project concerning high-yielding cultivars adapted to the zone for early attention.
