Summary, etc. Over 300 varieties of several crops have been developed by plant breeders from seed companies, Intemational Agricultural Research Centers (IARCs) and the public sector. These varieties are registered in one or more countries of the Southern African Development Community (SADC). Farmers may find it difficult to select an appropriate variety. The choice of a wrong crop or variety has many consequences, such as loss of yield, food security and profit. The choice of an improved but inappropriate variety also makes farmers lose confidence in improved varieties in general and this hampers technology adoption. It is therefore important that farmers are provided with inforrnation about varieties so that they can make a sound decision. This paper outlines important considerations in ensuring that farmers choose the right variety and points to the impact of that choice.
