Rapid assessment of sweetpotato seed and root production and markets in Kamuli and Iganga districts, near Eastern Uganda

The International Potato Center (CIP) and National Crops Resources Research Institute (NaCRRI) under the supervision of National Agricultural Research Organization are implementing a three-year project entitled, ‘Sweetpotato Genetic Advances and Innovative Seed Systems (SweetGAINS)’ funded by Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF). The project aims to modernize the current Sweetpotato breeding systems and early generation seed production. SweetGAINS project is structured into work packages (WP1 - WP4) for effective and efficient implementation. As part of work package 4, a detailed rapid assessment of the sweetpotato seed system was conducted. The main objective of the study was to generate bench information to support the implementation of the sweetpotato system.
