Drought pose one of the greater challenge in Africa in general in Ethiopia in particular; Global climate change is now generally considered to be in progress and is expected to result in an increased occurrence of drought in specific regions. Food security will be unsustainable without increasing yield in marginal environments, especially in drought-prone areas. We have to introduce drought tolerant crops which can be used as food and as feed; drought tolerant legume like pigeonpea is well adapted to such kind of environment, hence Pigeonpea can be used as an adaptation option to decrease the...

Both biotic and abiotic stresses are significantly affecting maize production and productivity in Ethiopia. However, research emphasis had been given for biotic research problems only. Hence, we should consider abiotic factors like lodging problems in our research agenda; if we want to maximize production and productivity of maize in Ethiopia. It was found that, yield and lodging resistance can be improved by practicing restricted and simultaneous selection in some of yield contributing traits in maize.
