| Dentre as alternativas brasileiras para o aumento da producao nacional de graos, tanto para atendimentos do mercado interno como para exportacao, a regiao dos Cerrados do Brasil ja desempenha papel de destaque. A estagnacao da producao nacional de cereais, notadamente nos ultimos anos, decorrencia de frustacoes climaticas na regiao sul do Pais, com perdas substanciais de safras, demonstra claramente a necessidade de diversificacao espacial na producao agricola. Nesse contexto o aumento da oferta de alimentos a nivel nacional, atraves de intensificacao da agricultura nos Cerrados, visando principalmente ao aumento vertical da producao, se apresenta como grande alternativa da sociedade brasileira. Existe uma serie de fatores de natureza tecnica, politica e... |

| Maize is the major food crop grown in the coastal region of Kenya and constitutes a major component of the diet of the population in the region. However, average yields are far below the potential for the region and low production levels create serious food deficits. Over the years, new technologies have been introduced but adoption has remained low, especially for fertilizer. This paper examined current maize-farming practices and technological and socioeconomic factors that influenced adoption in the Kilifi and Kwale Districts of the Coast Province, that together account for half of maize production in the region. The study found low adoption levels for improved maize varieties and technology, especially fertilizer, among farmers in the area. Farmers... |

| The publication describes outcomes of a study conducted in 2007/08 to analyze the bottlenecks affecting the production and deployment of maize seed in eastern and southern Africa. The objectives of the study were to provide a better understanding of the factors limiting the production and deployment of improved maize seed in Africa, and to contribute to increasing the efficiency of variety release, seed production and seed dissemination for new drought tolerant maize varieties. The study identified a number of institutional bottlenecks affecting the maize seed value chain, in particular in the area of policy, credit availability, seed production, germplasm and marketing. To address these bottlenecks and improve the efficiency of seed production and... |
