Relevance of the Action
• Rice is one of the major cereals consumed in Africa
• Rice production / increasing consumption
![Page 6: Projet afro weeds](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062419/557a891bd8b42ac2638b4c26/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Evolution of rice consumption and production in SSA (million tonnes)
![Page 7: Projet afro weeds](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062419/557a891bd8b42ac2638b4c26/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Relevance of the Action
• Rice is one of the major cereals consumed in Africa
• Rice production / increasing consumption • Rice prices / increasing• Africa is heavily dependent on the
international market• Lowland rice production systems / 52% of the
total area under rice in Sub-Saharan Africa
![Page 8: Projet afro weeds](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062419/557a891bd8b42ac2638b4c26/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Relevance of the Action• Limited production / ineffective control of
weeds (responsible to 28-89 % of yield losses)• Better productivity – effective weed control – effective adoption result
![Page 9: Projet afro weeds](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062419/557a891bd8b42ac2638b4c26/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Specific problems• Integrated weed management / knowledge of
weed biology and ecology • Extension services and researchers of National
Agricultural Research Systems (NARS) or Universities / a lack of information on problem weeds – weeds identification– weeds biology– management practices
![Page 10: Projet afro weeds](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062419/557a891bd8b42ac2638b4c26/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Relevance of the proposal
• New science and technology framework – weed research– management in rice production
• Centralised platform of information on the major weeds
![Page 11: Projet afro weeds](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062419/557a891bd8b42ac2638b4c26/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The specific objectives• Consolidation of existing scientific knowledge
for the weed species of irrigated and rain-fed lowland rice
• Enhancing exploitation and dissemination of best weed management practices

Outputs and expected results
• Established and consolidated networks at intra-ACP level
• Fully functional website containing the knowledge base on the weed species
• Computer tool for identification and information on rice weeds for Africa
• Concise paper version of the knowledge base– information flow for the extension workers– disseminating scientific knowledge
