2012-14 Phase-I

PL 5: Multi-purpose barley production technologies to meet food, feed and fodder demands in the dry regions of Africa and Asia (Barley for Asia and Africa)

10 October 2016 3

Objective 1: Establish and document regional and country research gapsand priorities, and use this information to organize collaborative researchprograms with the CRP to benefit barley small farmers in Africa and Asia.

Objective 2: Methodologies combining classical breeding and molecular breeding tools are currently used to allow faster identification and promotion of germplasm (better adapted, highly productive and with enhanced quality) that would ensure steady development of varieties.

Objective 3: Identify, distribute and use germplasm carrying source of resistanceto planned biotic stresses in the breeding programs to be incorporated in alreadyaccepted varieties or in new varieties to come

Relay cropping of barley in cotton to avoid yield losses due to delayed sowing

• Experiments on barley at farmers’ field at village Hajwana of district Kaithal• Four dates of sowing (12-18 November, 26 Nov-02 December, 10-16 December

and after harvesting of cotton) in main plot & seed rates (100,125 and 150 kg/ha) in sub plot.

• Three years data suggest that grain yield of barley increased by 19.8 (D1) and 19.1% (D2) respectively due to relay sowing using 150 kg seed ha-1 over the farmers’ practice i.e. sowing of barley after harvesting of cotton.

• Utilization of the complementary of NARS• Networking with NARS / ARI for phenotyping• Seed system support in Ethiopia, Morocco and Iran

• Collaboration in germplasm exchangeUSDA Idaho, UC Davis, FCDC Canada Access to more diversity for β glucan, MQ and other traits

• Genotyping with USDA (CG from Dryland Cereals)• Growing partnership (ClimBar Project / Proposal with JHI

Dundee, Scottland and Iran food security project)


Concerns / short comings

• Impact assessment not completed.• Shrinking Resources for supporting linkages in advance

research technologies• Resource management & CA needs bigger attention• Partnership not assured for CRP duration/ correct partners• Lacking application of Molecular technologies in breeding• Lack of much progress in value addition/ product development

and partnership with industry

• Straw quality / Dual purpose barley for livestock• Diversity studies for resistance / tolerance

New researchable issue
