| Copy Link | |
| Institution Coordinatrice: | CABI Bioscience |
| Description: | Objectives: Measures to ensure the quality and health of farm-saved and traded seed among the poor taken up and institutionalised within the operation of East African institutions, national legislation and procedures. Background: In Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), seed saved from farmers' own harvests is the dominant seed source for 80-90% of smallholder farmers, both for use by the growers' themselves and for sharing through social networks. It is estimated that as much as 30% of kale seed used by smallholder farmers in Kenya is produced by the informal seed sector. This seed is available, affordable, trusted by farmers, and has many known and valued uses. In addition, the informal seed sector includes NGOs, and other groups who multiply seed for distribution to other farmers and farmers who produce seeds for their own future use |
