description The Southern Africa Development Coordination Conference (SADCC) region covers Tanzania, Malawi, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Angola, Botswana, Lesotho, and Swaziland, and is the largest of the 3 regions hosting a CIAT bean program in Africa. Bean production from the SADCC region amounts to about 564 thousand t of dry seed, which is approx. a quarter of the total production of Africa. The strength of national programs differs substantially across the 9 countries. The Tanzania program is the largest. In most other countries in southern Africa, national scientists are part of grain legume research teams not devoted solely to beans. CIAT's regional activities have included the conduct of the 1st steering committee meeting, the convening of a bean fly workshop in Arusha, Tanzania, and the attendance of a board meeting of Southern African Center for Cooperation in Agricultural Research in Lusaka, Zambia.

(CIAT) La region de Southern Africa Development Coordination Conference (SADCC) comprende a Tanzania, Malawi, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Angola, Botswana, Lesotho y Swazilandia, y es la region mas grande de las 3 que tienen un programa de frijol de CIAT en Africa. La produccion de frijol de la region de SADCC asciende a cerca de 564 mil t de semilla seca, lo que corresponde aprox. a la cuarta parte de la produccion total del Africa. La solidez de los programas nacionales difiere sustancialmente entre los 9 paises. El programa de Tanzania es el mas grande. En la mayoria de los demas paises en el sur de Africa, los cientificos nacionales forman parte de equipos de investigacion de leguminosas de grano, los cuales no estan dedicados exclusivamente a frijol. Las actividades regionales del CIAT han incluido la organizacion de la primera reunion del comite directivo, la convocacion de un seminario sobre la mosca del frijol en Arusha, Tanzania, y la asistencia a una reunion de la junta directiva de Southern African Center for Cooperation in Agricultural Research en Lusaka, Zambia.
