Potato value chain
The project aims to establish a viable seed and ware potato value chain, including 8,855 farmers and processing industry.
- Increased availability of high quality seed potatoes
Increased availability of traceable high quality of seed potato through hydroponic multiplication of varieties with market demand, increased warehouse capacity and reduced disappearance of certified seeds into the informal chain. Clean inputs by Dutch companies HZPC, Solynta and Agrico.
Outcomes: higher yields, higher revenues of small holder potato farmers, cleaner soil ready to produce higher yields, increased value chain efficiency.
- Innovative value addition
Complementary potato processing facilities established in Kisoro (fries) and Kampala (crisps) that will connect in total 8,855 smallholder potato growers to the market for quality fresh potatoes and processed potato products, next to the regular market of ware potatoes.
Outcomes: higher prices for quality potatoes for smallholder farmers, increased value chain efficiency.
