Description A collection trip was conducted in 1997 in Nigeria to determine the economic importance of the photoperiod-sensitive dauro pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum) type, its role in the diet of people in the production areas, and its potential for improving local pearl millet landraces in Nigeria. The differences between dauro and maiwa types, and the agronomy, constraints to production, pests and geographical distribution of dauro are discussed.
