New short-cycle dual-purpose sorghum varieties (Koom-Kaviinre, Koom-Sii, Wenifoni)

This document presents the development and multi-location evaluation of three improved sorghum varieties in Burkina Faso. These varieties were bred from IRAT 204 and B35 to combine drought tolerance, grain yield, and forage production. Field trials over two years across three sites showed higher productivity and adaptability compared to existing varieties, with good stability and suitability for Sudanian and Sudano-Sahelian zones.
