This month, we are highlighting our research in maize also called corn. 🥳🥳🌽🌽
From climate-smart solutions for #maize farming; to breeding facts and figures, and maize farming solutions in drought affected areas, we will be showing how our research at IITA is shaping the future of maize research and food systems on the continent. 🌽🔬🧬
