Wheat production in SSA faces abiotic stresses (mainly heat and drought), biotic stresses (diseases, insect pests, weeds), and socioeconomic constraints (smallholder, resource-poor farmers, high-cost inputs and machinery, unavailable or difficult access to credit, and unfavorable marketing). Successful candidates will comprise in-depth study of a topic relevant to the project, "Support to agricultural research for development of strategic crops in Africa (SARD-SC)", funded by the African Development Bank. Research should be located in the Project's target countries: Eritrea, Ethiopia, Kenya, Lesotho, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Nigeria, Sudan, Tanzania, Zambia, and Zimbabwe.
