PEAI?L II:ILLET IRPRQVEMENT PROGR;iM IN SENEGAL
INTRODUCTION :
Pearl millet is the most important cereal trop in tcrms of area
as wcll 2s in production in Sonegal. Thc‘ yenr 1983 was a sc~vcre
drought ycar anc! thc ailltt C~OQ in most of the growing aroas WAS
affc.?cted.
Thcrc WAS :î. shortfall of 350 000 tons of cereal grains (i/3
;If the production) due to Foor hsrvest.
Thc! millet cxpcrimcnts werc plantt:d at four lociitiaons - Nioro,
Darou, Bambcy and Louga during rniny sCason 1983. The scason startcd
enrlier at Bnmbcy ani ; Latc at Lcuga. The cxperimunts wero plantcd on
21 June nt Bnmhey, 1 and 2 July rrt Nioro and Darou w-d 23 August at
Louga. The row lcngth was 6.3 m long and 90 cm npart. Plant to nlant
distance was 45 cm cxcopt for FEE, pcpulations (90 3: 90 cm). In a11
the replicatcd yic;ld trials(raps 5 to 61, 6 rows were plant-cd and
central 4 rows lcaving border plants woro harvcstad. In hybrid tria1
nnc! fcrtility x spacing tri.31, 4 ami 6 rows respectively were plantcd
and c<>ntxe.l rows wcre harvcsted.
Toti?l rainfall a:d its distribution is givcn in Table 1, Total
ruinfall was ,ab?ut
250 to 3OC mm less at cach locntir.:n. Thc! early ma-
turing variutius scffercd most at Nicro because of drought at flcwc-
ring stage (drc->ught betwecn 1C kugust to 8 Sept). Art Darou, the initial
growth waç pncr becnus:. of drought rtt seedling stage. fit Bambey, there
was drcught fr?r 50 dnys just aftcr planting. Ninety five por cent
plants wert? stanrainq but thi; sccdling growth was p~oor nnd the flowering
was delayad by 14 to ZC days. .;t Lcuga, thcre was drought the whole
aonth of SeptiL-mbcr anc! Octobcr and the rainfall i146m1) was lowest in
last 66 yi?ars.
Thc poortist cran was at Louga Q& s oz 3 e:crs iroyta uere
pcor at vioro.
Bccnusc r?f drought and erratic rainfall, the soi1 hcterngeneity
crested more variation in plcts as normally cxp:>ctod. The cocfficiont
of variations were high at Lnugn %nd Hioro. Almost a11 thc breading

Technique :
a)
Four varietiss - IBV 8004, IVS 5454, H7 -66 and Souna III 'were
teated at 23 ' . plant pogulations in a FAN design during 198a,
IVS 5454 was repLacc:d hy 3/4 M-b78 during 1983.
b)
Four varictics - IRV' 3004, IVS 5454, ~7-66, ZXX~ Souna III wort<
tested in a rzplicnized yicld tria1 at 3 spacings (9G x 90, 90 x 60,
90 x 30 cm) with samp plant uopu1.4tion (37 G2G plants pc:r ha),
and at % 1~~1s of fcrtilizer (61 N: 31.5 P2 05 : 31.5 K2 0, and
33 N : 21 P2 c.5 : 21 K.2 0) during 1982. Based on resultr, thc
tria1 ~a.5 modified in 2983 - IVS 5454 was rcplaced by a dwarf
3/4 HK-E!76. Three levels of spacing were changod to 2 (90 x 90
and C)G x 45 cm) snd zero fcrtilizer level was added.
