| Description |
The International Crops Research Institute for the Semi.Arid Tropics (ICRISAT) invests heavily in screening and breeding for resistance to yield reducers. The benefits to this research are derived primarily from enhanced output, increased equity, and improved nutrition. In theory, improved yield stability from more pest resistant and stress tolerant varieties could also lead to reduced farm, regional. and national production variability.
