Chichewa) and Tanzania (Swahili). One participant each from Malawi and Tanzania made a visit to ICRISAT-Patancheru and familiarized with pigeonpea breeding, seed production, crop management, including hybrid pigeonpea. Under degree training, Ms. Mayomba Maryanna Maryange from Tanzania is working on pigeonpea improvement for her PhD. Introduction In ESA, pigeonpea is widely grown in Tanzania, Malawi, Kenya, Uganda and Mozambique, and to a little extent in Burundi under maize-mixed (66% area) and root-crop-sorghum/millet mixed (29%). Area and production during the last decade increased by 45.3% and 50.3%, respectively; however, productivity gains are just 3.2% only (Table 10-1). In Tanzania, the area and production are increased almost 150% over the period of decade. The productivity changes are very minimal and erratic at a national level, however the average productivity reached almost 1 MT per ha in Northern Tanzania, wherein adoption of high yielding varieties are at higher level. In Tanzania, over 50% of the farmers in Babati district adopted new varieties (ICEAP 00040 – Mali and ICEAP 00053) and production area expanded beyond the traditional Babati district to reach the neighboring districts of Karatu, Kondoa and Mbulu. There is expansion now to new districts of Arumeru, Hai and Rombo in northern Tanzania. In Malawi, area, production and productivity increased at the rate of 29.1%, 88% and 46%, respectively, during the last decade. The release of a new set of medium duration varieties in Malawi (ICEAP 00557 and ICEAP 01514/15) that are suitable to grow in Southern, Central and Northern regions of Malawi opened up avenues for area expansion.

Phase 2 also involves Uganda with major focus on Kitgum and Lira districts of Northern zone. 206 Engaging Smallholder Farmers | Tropical Legumes II Project

Summarized accounts of are presented below. Pigeonpea producing areas and production systems The bulk of pigeonpea production is concentrated in the southern region of Malawi. The Blantyre and Machinga ADDs accounted for about 90% of the total pigeonpea area. Pigeonpea is widely grown as an intercrop with maize in southern Malawi, but it is mainly grown as a boundary marker in northern Malawi. In Tanzania, the major pigeonpea growing areas are Lindi and Mtwara regions in the southern zone; Kilimanjaro, Arusha, and Manyara regions in the northern zone; and Shinyanga Region in the Lake Zone. It is also grown along the coast, Dar es Salaam, Tanga and in Morogoro regions in the Eastern Zone, where it is used mainly as vegetable. Cropping patterns In Malawi, over 90% of the households planted maize in the 2006/2007. Groundnut is the second most frequently cultivated crop (55%), while pigeonpea comes third and it is cultivated by 40% of the households in the sample. When it comes to the share of crop area, that 54% of the cultivated land is allocated to maize, while groundnuts and pigeonpea are allocated 17% and 15% of the total cultivated land, respectively. The average area cultivated for pigeonpea is 0.3 ha. In Tanzania, pigeonpea is the third most important legume, after common bean and groundnut. Pigeonpea is grown by 88% of the farmers in the target areas and the average planted area is about1.36 ha, mainly through intercropping with maize. Progress of Phase 1 207
