Enhancing the contribution of maize to food security in Ethiopia
This publication provides a comprehensive and detailed review of the major maize research and technology dissemination advances and challenges in Ethiopia since the First National Maize Workshop of Ethiopia was held on May 5-7, 1992. The papers have been grouped under seven sessions: 1) workshop opening and keynote addresses; 2) maize breeding and genetics; 3) maize agronomy; 4) maize crop protection; 5) economics and extension; 6) seed production and maize utilization; and 7) emerging technologies. The papers contained within this proceedings provide a useful guide to the status quo regarding maize technology development and dissemination in Ethiopia.
