Durum wheat in South America.
1992
Kohli M.M. | Nisi J. | Ramirez I.
This paper deals with the durum wheat needs and potential of five South American countries: Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Peru, and Brazil. The first four countries produce sufficient quantities of durum wheat to satisfy their domestic needs. Brazil, which consumes many pasta products, either imports them directly or makes them from bread wheat like many other countries. There is room for market expansion and the five countries have durum wheat breeding programs of varying abilities. However, the amount of genetic variability available for required characters has not been rapidly forthcoming. There are strong indications that the expansion of durum wheat area in South America has been primarily limited by diseases. If any area expansion in the region is to take place, availability of disease-resistant germplasm will be the key.
