Description The objectives of the workshop were to describe the effects of farmers' own seed management practices on pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L) R. Br.] populations and to identify possible implications for breeding and conservation of genetic diversity in this crop. Farmer cultivars were compared with selected improved varieties that had similar characters or were being used in the region.
