Abstract

The project aimed to establish a sustainable system of farmer led seed potato production for improved varieties in Kapchorwa district, in four subcounties of Kaserem, Kaptanya, Kaproron and Bukwa. Emphasis was on establishing a limited number of viable commercial seed producers as well as training farmers to maintain their own healthy seed from season to season. The seed for multipliers is then passed over to the poor farm households who further multiply the seed using small seed plot system.
