  Activity/Product Description
    
(1) Generation of data on benefits of improved soil-crop-water management practices on yield and quality of pearl millet. (2) Characterization of the main water stress patterns within pearl millet production agroecologies in A1, A, B zone (focus on A1&A). Based on the information, mapping the main abiotic constraints for pearl millet production in A1, A, B zone and suggest optimal genotype x management options for production improvement. "Enhanced awareness of stakeholders on integrated crop management ractices to improve pearl millet productivity -Enhanced yield and income of participating farmers Enhanced awareness of stakeholders on integrated crop management ractices to improve pearl millet productivity -Enhanced yield and income of participating farmers "
