In this captivating book, the author delves into the heart of innovative research on amaranth, a plant with exceptional nutritional qualities but under-utilized in Benin. The rigorously conducted study led to the agro-morphological characterization of nine lines, in accordance with the amaranth descriptor drawn up by the International Union for the Protection of New Varieties of Plants (UPOV). Drawing also on the indicators in Benin's plant species registration manual, the author reveals the most promising lines, ready to strengthen the national seed system. This book offers a scientific, practical and exciting approach to the challenges of modern Beninese agriculture and solutions for improving food security. A must-read for agronomists, researchers and anyone who believes in a prosperous agricultural future.
