Combining ability and Heterosis for grain yield and rust resistance in pearl millet

Lubadde, Geofrey; Tongoona, p; Derera, J; Sibiya, J (Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education, 2016)

Pearl millet is a dual-purpose crop in semi-arid zones of Uganda. However, no studies have been conducted to determine the gene effects for yield and yield-related traits and rust resistance in these environments; yet this ...
Comparison and suitability of genotype by environment analysis methods for yield-related traits of pearl millet

Lubadde, Geofrey; Ebiyau, J; Akello, B; Ugen, M.A (2016)

Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.) is an important food security and income crop for households living in semi-arid zones in Uganda. However, the genotype by environment interaction, in addition to the several ...
Impact of Uganda’s National Agricultural Advisory Services Program

Benin, Samuel; Nkonya, Ephraim; Okecho, Geresom; Randriamamonjy, Josée; Kato, Edward; Lubadde, Geofrey; Kyotalimye, Miriam; Byekwaso, Francis (International Food Policy Research Institute, 2011)

The importance of agricultural extension in agricultural and rural development is widely known, so it is not surprising that agricultural extension has attracted substantial investment of public resources since the 1950s, ...
Pearl millet socioeconomic and production characteristics in Uganda

Lubadde, Geofrey; Tongoona, Pangirai; Derera, John; Sibiya, Julia (National Semi Arid Resources Research Institute of the National Agricultural Research Organisation (NaSARRI-NARO), Uganda., 2015)

Summary Pearl millet is an important cereal grown by farmers in environmentally marginalised areas. In Uganda it is mainly grown in northern (Acholi), northeastern (Karamoja) and eastern (Teso) regions. The regions are ...
Production Determinants of the Pearl Millet Cropping System in Uganda and Implications to Productivity

Lubadde, Geofrey; Tongoona, P; Derera, J; Sibiya, J (Canadian Center of Science and Education, 2016)

Pearl millet is an important crop for people living in semi-arid areas in Uganda but not much is known about its production environment. A survey was conducted in eastern and northern regions of Uganda to characterise the ...
Registration of ‘NAROSORG1 and NAROSORG3’ Sorghum Varieties with High Grain Yield and Superior Grain Qualities from Uganda.

Andiku, Charles; Lubadde, Geofrey; Aru, Charles John; Emanio, John; Ugen, Micheal Adrogu; Ebiyau, Johnie (2020-08-20)

Sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] is the third most important cereals after maize and rice in Uganda. It is mainly grown by the resource-poor rural farmers in Uganda as a staple food, but this trend has changed recently ...
Registration of ‘NAROSORG2’ Sorghum Variety with Desirable Farmer Attributes for Uganda.

Andiku, Charles; Lubadde, Geofrey; Aru, Charles John; Emanio, John; Ugen, Micheal Adrogu; Ebiyau, Johnie (Busitema University., 2020-07-23)

Sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] is the major cereal in Uganda that has recently evolved from being a food crop to a cash crop. However, low farm yields of less than 500 kg ha-1 have been recorded due to both abiotic ...
Response of locally adapted pearl millet populations to S1 progeny recurrent selection for grain yield and resistance to rust.

Lubadde, Geofrey; Tongoona, P; Derera, J.; Sibiya, J (2016)

In the semi-arid zones of Uganda, pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.) is mainly grown for food and income; but rust (Puccinia substriata var indica (L.) R. Br.) is the main foliar constraint lowering yield. The ...
Returns to spending on agricultural extension: the case of the National Agricultural Advisory Services (NAADS) program of Uganda.

Benina, Samuel; Nkonya, Ephraim; Okecho, Geresom; Randriamamonjya, Jose'e; Kato, Edward; Lubadde, Geofrey; Kyotalimye, Miriam (AGRICULTURAL ECONOMICS, 2010)

The aim of this paper is to assess the direct and indirect impacts of the agricultural extension system of Uganda, the National Agricultural Advisory Services (NAADS) program, on household agricultural income. Data from ...
