24 lis 2023 · This review shows that increased temperature has a negative impact on millet yield and growth parameters. Other climatic factors significantly affecting millet production in the Central Sahel include drought, desertification, dry spells, rainfall variability, and wind.
We found that the high spatial variability of millet yield is due to two main edaphic factors: soil fertility properties and water availability. It is still unknown whether the spatial variability of the two main factors is inherent to Sahelian soils.

Millet is a highly resilient crop that can withstand the Sahel’s harsh climate, including drought, high temperatures, and poor soil quality. Its deep root system allows it to access water and nutrients from deeper layers of the soil, making it more drought-tolerant than other cereal crops.
15 lis 2018 · In this study, we propose a methodology to investigate the potential links between soil moisture variations and millet crop yield in the Sahel region.
14 sie 2024 · Millets are an important traditional food known for their dietary diversity. They play a key role in ensuring human health and well-being. Millets, which are small-seeded grains cultivated widely in various areas of the world, have emerged as significant contributors to this paradigm shift.
23 mar 2012 · The Sahel is home to cowpeas, pigeon peas, groundnut, green grams and chick peas but millet and sorghum are the two most vital food crops of the Sahel. Millet is a group of annual grasses that are mainly found in arid or semi-arid regions in the world, normally found growing in places that barley and wheat are unable to thrive.
