The grain of quality protein maize (QPM) varieties contains nearly twice as much lysine and tryptophan, amino acids that are essential for humans and monogastric animals.

QPM was developed by Surinder Vasal and Evangelina Villegas at the International Maize and Wheat. The popularity of maize in Ethiopia is partly because ofits high value as a food crop as well as the growing demand for the stover as animal fodder and source of fuel for rural fami-lies.
