Le 4 octobre 2025, la ferme de recherche de l'IITA \u00e0 Shika, Samaru, Zaria, s'est anim\u00e9e alors que des chercheurs, des repr\u00e9sentants d'entreprises semenci\u00e8res (Premier Seeds, EcoBasics Seed, Value Seed, Techni Seeds et d'autres partenaires tels qu'Olam et Nigeria Flour Mills) se sont rassembl\u00e9s pour une visite de terrain afin de constater de visu l'impact de la recherche. Des rang\u00e9es de plants luxuriants de soja, de ma\u00efs et de ni\u00e9b\u00e9 s'\u00e9tendaient \u00e0 travers les champs, entra\u00eenant les participants dans une immersion au c\u0153ur de l'innovation et de la collaboration agricoles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

L'\u00e9v\u00e9nement, anim\u00e9 par le professeur Lucky Omoigui, sp\u00e9cialiste des syst\u00e8mes semenciers de l'IITA, a servi de plateforme pour pr\u00e9senter les vari\u00e9t\u00e9s de cultures nouvelles et am\u00e9lior\u00e9es de l'IITA et pour renforcer les partenariats avec les entreprises semenci\u00e8res qui s'efforcent de faire parvenir ces innovations aux agriculteurs nig\u00e9rians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201c Cette visite de terrain vise \u00e0 assurer la continuit\u00e9, en veillant \u00e0 ce que les agriculteurs aient toujours acc\u00e8s \u00e0 des semences de qualit\u00e9 \u201d, a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 le professeur Omoigui aux participants en guidant le groupe \u00e0 travers les parcelles. \u201c Cet acc\u00e8s \u00e0 des semences de qualit\u00e9 commence d\u00e8s les premi\u00e8res \u00e9tapes de la production de semences. \u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dans ses propos, le professeur Omoigui a salu\u00e9 les entreprises semenci\u00e8res qui ont constamment collabor\u00e9 avec IITA sur la production de semences de premi\u00e8re g\u00e9n\u00e9ration et a encourag\u00e9 une participation encore plus large dans les diverses agro-\u00e9cologies du Nig\u00e9ria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Alors que le groupe visitait les champs, les participants ont observ\u00e9 les performances de diverses vari\u00e9t\u00e9s de soja, notamment TGx 1951-3F, TGx 1904-6F, TGx 1448-2E, TGx 2020-4F et TGx 2029-27F, ainsi que les nouvelles vari\u00e9t\u00e9s lanc\u00e9es en 2025 (TGx 2029-27F et TGx 2029-53F). Le professeur Omoigui a expliqu\u00e9 comment les vari\u00e9t\u00e9s plus anciennes mais populaires, telles que TGx 1448\u20132E, sont progressivement remplac\u00e9es par des options plus r\u00e9centes et adapt\u00e9es au climat qui r\u00e9pondent aux exigences des agriculteurs et du march\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Les discussions sur le terrain ont \u00e9t\u00e9 anim\u00e9es. Les participants ont \u00e9chang\u00e9 des observations sur la mani\u00e8re dont des facteurs tels que l'intensit\u00e9 lumineuse, l'humidit\u00e9 du sol et la pression des maladies influencent la croissance et le rendement des plantes. La visite a permis de constater de visu comment les conditions environnementales fa\u00e7onnent les performances des vari\u00e9t\u00e9s, des informations cruciales pour une planification \u00e9clair\u00e9e de la production de semences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Au-del\u00e0 de l'agronomie, la visite de terrain a soulign\u00e9 l'importance d'une production de semences ax\u00e9e sur le march\u00e9. Le professeur Omoigui a soulign\u00e9 que si les agriculteurs peuvent valoriser les vari\u00e9t\u00e9s \u00e0 forte biomasse pour l'am\u00e9lioration des sols, les transformateurs privil\u00e9gient souvent la qualit\u00e9 des semences pour l'extraction d'huile ou la production de farine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201c Chaque acteur de la cha\u00eene de valeur compte, a-t-il d\u00e9clar\u00e9. Lorsque nous comprenons ce que veulent les agriculteurs, les transformateurs et les consommateurs, nous pouvons promouvoir des vari\u00e9t\u00e9s qui sont rentables et durables pour tout le monde. \u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Il a \u00e9galement partag\u00e9 le succ\u00e8s d'IITA dans le d\u00e9veloppement d'un Striga<\/em>vari\u00e9t\u00e9 de ni\u00e9b\u00e9 \u00e0 grandes graines brunes r\u00e9sistante, s\u00e9lectionn\u00e9e pour remplacer celle tr\u00e8s appr\u00e9ci\u00e9e mais Striga<\/em>susceptible Borno Brown<\/em>. Il a expliqu\u00e9 que cette innovation refl\u00e8te l'engagement de l'IITA \u00e0 \u201c \u00e9quilibrer l'\u00e9quation \u201d et \u00e0 r\u00e9pondre \u00e0 la demande du march\u00e9, tout en garantissant la productivit\u00e9 et la r\u00e9silience des agriculteurs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00c0 la fin de la visite, le Dr Afolabi, s'exprimant au nom des entreprises semenci\u00e8res, a f\u00e9licit\u00e9 l'IITA et le Prof Omoigui pour leur d\u00e9vouement envers le renforcement du syst\u00e8me semencier du Nig\u00e9ria. Il a lou\u00e9 les progr\u00e8s visibles r\u00e9alis\u00e9s dans le d\u00e9veloppement de vari\u00e9t\u00e9s am\u00e9lior\u00e9es et a r\u00e9affirm\u00e9 l'engagement des partenaires \u00e0 poursuivre la collaboration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dans ses remarques finales, le professeur Omoigui a remerci\u00e9 les participants pour leur participation active et a r\u00e9affirm\u00e9 l'ouverture de l'IITA aux partenariats, aux commentaires et \u00e0 l'innovation. \u201c Nos portes restent ouvertes \u201d, a-t-il d\u00e9clar\u00e9. \u201c Ensemble, nous pouvons continuer \u00e0 b\u00e2tir un syst\u00e8me semencier plus fort et plus inclusif pour le Nig\u00e9ria et au-del\u00e0. \u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
La visite des parcelles de 2025 a mis en valeur les derni\u00e8res vari\u00e9t\u00e9s de cultures de l'IITA et a r\u00e9affirm\u00e9 le r\u00f4le de l'Institut en tant que force motrice du renforcement du secteur semencier en Afrique. Les participants ont quitt\u00e9 l'exploitation avec un enthousiasme renouvel\u00e9 et une vision plus approfondie de l'avenir des syst\u00e8mes semenciers, ancr\u00e9s dans la science, la collaboration et la croissance partag\u00e9e.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
