Last week, the BioInnovate Africa Project through the International Potato Center (CIP) launched a new project in Kigali. The USD750,000 budgeted project is expected to cover four East African Countries—Rwanda, Uganda, Kenya, and Ethiopia.
Dubbed ‘Orange-fleshed Sweet potato (OFSP) Puree for Bakery Applications in East Africa’ for nutrition, post-harvest loss management, and youth & women economic empowerment, the project is expected to expand the value chain of orange fleshed sweet potato across the region.
