Description
Maize is the world's most widely-grown cereal and a dietary staple throughout the Third World, but its full potential has only begun to be tapped.
This book thoroughly examines the biological and economic issues relevant to improving the productivity of maize in developing countries.
The authors explore a wide range of practical problems, from maximizing maizes reproductive behaviour and genetic resistance to insects and diseases to identifying research priorities, promoting private-sector services, and utilizing technology effectively.
They also examine the place of maize in the world economy, the roles of public and private research organizations, and problems of policy.
