Ruanda: Enhancing production of quality seed potatoes in Rwanda
As part of a USAID-funded potato projects in Rwanda, there is a need to generate quality early potato seed.
To meet this need, six potato experts from Rwanda Agriculture and Animal Resources Development Board (RAB) and Rwanda Inspectorate, Competition and Consumer Protection Authority (RICA), Rwanda, attended a 5-day intensive training at the Centre of Phytosanitary Excellence (COPE) in Nairobi.
During a visit to the International Potato Center (CIP) Biotechnology/Genomic facility, they could see the two USAID-funded potato projects implemented in Rwanda – Partnership for Seed Potato Technology Transfer in Africa (PASTTA2) and Accelerated Innovation Delivery Initiative in The Great Lakes Region (AID-I GLR) organized all the trainings/visits.
