Statement of objectives/abstract:Begun in 1977, this proect has sought to make available to farmers in Burkina Fasocowpea varieties that are high in yield; better suited to semiarid zones; resistantto disease, insect pests, and Striga; and acceptable to growers. Ebven years ofresearch have made i possible to put at the disposal of extension workers andfarmers varieties that are high in yield and resistant to ine mast common insectpests, as well as to disease, drought, and Stnga, in each of the three agroclimaticzones of the country. Average yields from these varieties are at last double thoseof traddional average yields. However, the new varieties are still greatlyinfluenced by climatic factors (erratic rains, high temperatures), insects, disease,and Strga infestations; furthermore. they cannot be used in mixedirotation croppingwith cereals, which is the most comrronly practised method of cultivation. Phase IVwill involve a multidisciplinary approach designed to ensure he transfer of theresistance of certain local varieties to drought, Strga, and high temperatures, tonewly selWcted vaneties aid their screening for mixed/rotation cropping.

Statement of objectiveslabstract:In Senegal. sorghum and millet are tradtionai staples of a wide cross-section of thepopulabtin in both rural and urban areas. However. drehulling and griding has beenidentid by women as a constraint to the use of these grains. The first phase ofths proect devebped two dehullers (the MINI-CIS I and 11) for rural and urbangrain processing. AIthough technically viable in many villges, field testingindicated that the villge dehuller was not economicaly viable in many vuages.The relatively high cost ot dehulling, due to the high cost of the equipwent, made itunaffordable to women. This second phase project will involve the develpment oftechndogigral packages for rural. semiurban. and urban loations appropnate formills using the MINI CIS I and 11 dehullers. These will be tested to determine theconditons of their viable and sustainable operation. Specifically, it will designand lest in the laboratory an improved dehuller; develop the methodology to start aproduction tine for the manufacture of a number of dehulers; lield lest thedehullers; and evaluate their appropriateness with respect to people's needs andacceptance.

Statement of obecbtives/abstract:Since 1983. Dr Traore has been conducting a stuy in Burkina Faso on the energy valueof the latex plant Calotropis procera. With a C/N ratio ol 17 this plant produced 2900 cubic centimeters d biogas'day/l of fermented liquid with 59 per cent of methanewith a charge rate of 4 per cent. A buffer system based on clacinated vegetableallows for the correction of the very acid fermentation of C. procera. The next phfiseof research wltl be to increase the digester from I to two liters. and then to 30liters. Biogas produced from a mixture of C. procera and animal droppings from ourfarm may permit heating for 1 000 to 1 500 chicks a year at our station. This willalso save the use of the rnuch more expensive petroleum lamp. The adapted bumers canuse buogas.

Statement of objectives/abstract:Burkina Faso is a land-locked country in the southern part of the Sahara. where rainfalls about three months a year. Approximately 90% ol the population are farmers.Income-producing activities are scarce and vegetable products are generally theironty source of income. The extracton, marketing, and processing of vegetable Oisof varying quality is the main activty. However, extraction and developmenttechniques are rudirnentary and do not bring profits. This prmoct wiN improve thesetechniques by mechanizing some operations thus reducing the effort and increase theextraction yieid. The project will also study certain oil processing techniques.such as the production of soap and other household products. Specifically. it willcarry out market studies: develop appropriate oil-extracting technologies: classifythe oil; develop new nonedible vegetable oil-based products; and carry out aneconomic analysis of the activities.

Statement of obectives/abstract:INTSOY is a multipurpose commodity network. INTSOY once served as a clearinghousefor a worldwide system for soybean germpasm. The international nursery part ofINTSOY is caled ISVEX (Intemational Soybean Variety Experimrenl) and was started atthe i"ception of INTSOY in 1973. It was terminated in 1985 with 132 countries havingparticipaled in ISVEX. By 1986. INTSOY had completely shifted the focus of its workto finding new ways to process and use soybeans as human and livestock food. INTSOYis now concentrating on a three-phase soybean utilization effort for the period1985-1991 as follows: Phase l: Intensified research to develop new soy products andprocesses: Phase II: Development of simple 'how to manuals and equipment lists forless developed countries and entrepreneurs interested in production of soy foods on asmagl or large commercial scale; Phase Ill: On-site technical assistance in soybeanutilization for govemments and private firms in less developed countries. Theprimary goal is to improve human nutition through increased use of whole soybeans.Some specitic programs/projects include: {a) collaboration with the Department ofFood Science at the University of Illinois lo develop new ways to process and usewhole soybeans for human food; (b) combined soybean/grain. soybearnvegetable. andsoybeantfruit foods produced by extrusion cooking; (c) a simple low-cost process toproduce a high-quality soymilk with no patent restricVions; (d) immature greensoybeans as a commercially viable high-protein green vegetable; (e) simple processesfor converting soybean residues into animal feed: and (f) home- and vilage-levelprocedures for preparing soybean products for home consumption.

Statement of objctives/abstract:The hnctio integrty of ecosystems m aNt tropical and sub-tropical regons isaffected by a complex of actors in which th population and deveopment play a largerol. This causes problems with the conservatior. (protection) and sustainablemanagement of both the biological diversity and the prduction potential. Theresearch is primarly aimed at assessing the value of ecosystems and rehabilitationof degraded systems. Forest development and economic management are approached byusing models. Transfer of knowledge by counterpart system, by PhD and MSc educationand by shor-term training in the developing countries or in the Netherlands.The rnainthems consists of two parts: (1) Research on conservation and management: (a)qualitative and quantiative assessment of te value of ecosystems through rapidassessment methods (seective inventory of indicator species and remote sensing,coupled with GIS). The value is assessed on criteria such as biological diversityand the structural 'build' or cohesion of forests and wetlands, (b) analysis of the
