Résumé : Considerable progress has been made in the Improvement Division, supervised by the Director, Dr. Wonkyi-Appiah, and headed by Messrs. Afrim and Aboagya. This progress relates mainly to selection techniques: pollen preparation; bunch analysis; seed storage and germinator. Some minor improvements should be made to record keeping procedures, to pollen control, upkeep and clearing. Significant efforts should be made as regards bunch data analysis and data management. For the trials, it is essential to complete bunch analyses and carry out statistical analyses. For the breeding data, it is important to compile parent and progeny lists, draw up trial protocols and organize a practical and functional filing system. The seed production programme will be continued, with few changes. It is recommended that fields 851, 852 and 853 be abandoned, since they are far from Opri and the University of Ghana has asked for the land. A course lasting around a month is recommended for one of the breeders in 1990. A minimum work programme has been proposed for 1990, taking account of the various priorities.
