"Getting new crop varieties into the hands of a large number of farmers quickly is the challenge," said Robert Asiedu, head of biotechnology and genetic improvement at the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture, a research center based in Nigeria.
"It can be five to 10 years before large quantities of new varieties reach farmers... That's the main bottleneck now."
It is crucial for farmers to grow drought-resistant crops as part of a range of pro-active measures, experts say.
For example, soil degradation and deforestation exacerbate the effects of drought because soil loses its ability to retain water, so farmers must improve soil fertility and irrigation practices.
