About ICRISAT The semi-arid tropics (SAT) encompass parts of 48 developing countries including most of India, parts of southeast Asia, a swathe across sub-Saharan Africa, much of southern and eastern Africa, and parts of Latin America. Many of these countries are among the poorest in the world. Approximately one-sixth of the world’s population lives in the SAT, which is typified by unpredictable weather, limited and erratic rainfall, and nutrient-poor soils. ICRISAT’s mandate crops are sorghum, pearl millet, chickpea, pigeonpea and groundnut; these five crops are vital to life for the everincreasing populations of the SAT. ICRISAT’s mission is to conduct research that can lead to enhanced sustainable production of these crops and to improved management of the limited natural resources of the SAT. ICRISAT communicates information on technologies as they are developed through workshops, networks, training, library services and publishing. ICRISAT was established in 1972. It is supported by the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR), an informal association of approximately 50 public and private sector donors; it is cosponsored by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the World Bank. ICRISAT is one of 15 nonprofit, CGIARsupported Future Harvest centers. 34
