What We Do

The Feed the Future Innovation Lab for Collaborative Research on Sorghum and Millet focuses on supporting our partner countries to drive resiliency through research, human and institutional capacity development, and technology delivery.


The SMIL management team works closely with country coordinators and country-level teams in each focus country to maximize resources for the in-country teams and expand their authority to manage research and innovation delivery on short-, mid-, and long-term timelines.

SMIL develops global networks that leverage key capacities towards strategic short- and long-term research needs that allow sorghum and pearl millet to be more valuable.
