Mesures de conservation recommandéesStratégies de conservation IUCNExpert
The genus Pennisetum (syn. Cenchrus) is listed in Annex I of the International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture (ITPGRFA) which aims to guarantee sustainable agriculture and food security through the conservation and sustainable use of plant genetic resources for food and agriculture, as well as ensuring the fair and equitable sharing of the benefits arising out of their use (FAO 2009). Seed is collected and stored in situ in Kenya as well as sent to the Millennium Seed Bank Partnership, as part of the Adapting Agriculture to Climate Change project (Dempewolf et al. 2014).
According to Genesys (2017) there are germplasm accesstions held at the Millenium Seed Bank Partnership, Kew, International Crop Research Institute, India and International Livestock Research Institute, Ethiopia. The Botanic Gardens Conservation International (BGCI 2017) records this species has a living collection, although the size of the collections are not detailed in this resource.
This species' native distribution overlaps with at least one protected area in tropical Africa, inferred using GeoCAT (Bachman et al. 2011), so passive conservation is presumed in these areas. However, there is no evidence of active management or monitoring of this species.
