High-yielding, early maturing, and striga-resistant cowpea varieties for farmers! IITA’s improved cowpea varieties offer a development-oriented solution to combat poverty, hunger, and malnutrition. Short-duration, high-yielding, and pest-resistant, these varieties are adapted to Sahel and Sudan Savanna agro-ecologies. With protein-rich grains and fast-cooking seeds, they provide both nutritional benefits and increased income opportunities for smallholder farmers. Supporting adoption of these varieties aligns with SDGs, climate-smart agriculture, and rural development initiatives.
