Iniciativa para el maíz en África Austral

01.01.2011 - 30.09.2015

La „New Seed Initiative for Maize in Southern Africa“ (NSIMA) investiga, por una parte, variedades de maíz que son tolerantes a la sequía. Estas variedades, además, pueden dar mayores cosechas que las variedades normales, incluso con suelos poco fértiles, lo cual redunda en una mayor seguridad alimentaria. Por otra parte, el proyecto coopera con actores estatales y privados del sector del maíz a fin de fomentar la producción y el comercio de semillas (también para los pequeños productores).
