“…To sustain productivity, groundnut resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses must be improved. To this end, ICRISAT has identified and developed sources of key traits, including resistance to early leaf spot (caused by Cercospora arachidicola), late leaf spot (caused by Phaeoisariopsis personata), rust (caused by Puccinia arachidis), and aflatoxins [9,24,25,27,46,52]. Additionally, significant progress has been achieved at ICRISAT in developing drought tolerant [104,105] and early maturing cultivars [46].…”

“…Most research results are confined to annual reports of individual projects, with little published in international journals [22]. To our knowledge, publications in recent years have focused mainly on yield evaluation [23] and disease of local and exotic varieties for early leaf spot [24,25]. Earlier research activities involved evaluation of resistance to foliar diseases in lines introduced from ICRISAT (International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics) or the USA through the Peanut CRSP (Peanut Collaborative Research Support Program) [26][27][28] and similar development programmes.…”

Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is a major food and cash crop in Burkina Faso. Due to growing demand for raw oilseeds, there is an increasing interest in groundnut production from traditional rain-fed areas to irrigated environments. However, despite implementation of many initiatives in the past to increase groundnut productivity and production, the groundnut industry still struggles to prosper, due to several constraints including minimal development research and fluctuating markets. Yield penalty due to drought and biotic stresses continue to be a major drawback for groundnut production. This review traces progress in the groundnut breeding that started in Burkina Faso before the country’s political independence in 1960 through to present times. Up to the 1980s, groundnut improvement was led by international research institutions such as IRHO (Institute of Oils and Oleaginous Research) and ICRISAT (International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics). However, international breeding initiatives were not sufficient to establish a robust domestic groundnut breeding programme. This review also provides essential information about opportunities and challenges of groundnut research in Burkina Faso, emphasising the need for institutional attention to genetic improvement of the crop.

“…The groundnut seed composed of approximately equal weight of fatty and non-fatty oil. The general productivity of groundnut in Africa is comparatively low, compare to that of America due to a number of constraints such as biological, undulating climate, socio-economic factors, pests and diseases (Zongo et al, 2019). The average output of groundnut in Africa (902.6 kg ha -1 ) is very low comparative to the American output of 33381.4 kg ha -1 (FAOSTAT, 2018).…”

The groundnut seed composed of approximately equal weight of fatty and non-fatty oil. The groundnut cake (kulikuli- Hausa name in Nigeria) contains concentrated protein, minerals, and vitamins in addition research finding revealed that no part of the nut is a waste. The kernel without the nuts can be used as hay to feed animals like, horse or ash manure. Planting machine or planter that is normally required to produce more food is beyond the buying capacity of smallholder’s farmers, which result in low productivity especially in the production of grains. An improved manual two-row groundnut planter was developed and evaluated for its performance using locally sourced materials which can be adapted for gardens and smallholder farmers. The machine has the following parts which are furrow opener, handle, frame, hopper, discharge tube, metering unit, and roller housing. The machine was evaluated for field capacity and metering efficiency (3 hole metering devices) at different forward speeds. It was observed that the machine field capacity efficiency of was 82%. Using standard error bars the highest metering efficiency of 92% was observed at 0.7 m s -1 machine speed. The ANOVA (analysis of variance) shows that speed as significant effect on metering efficiency with a p-value of 5.44E-18. The planter could plant an average of five seeds per point. It is simple, cheap and the ergonomics of the machine was considered which makes it easy to operate.
