Nutrition-led Agriculture
“From Lab to Plate”
• Scaling up with lighter integrated intervention, greater focus on crop diffusion
• 225,000 farming households with OSP and high iron beans (reaching over 1.3 million)

Better Crops, Better Nutrition
Adding iron through beans – more micronutrients ...

Objective Promote the use of Triple S technology at scale and build a cadre of trained extension personal to monitor its adoption
Approach
• Identified, sensitised, trained community resource persons (CRPs) and extension workers in 4 selected districts in northern Uganda
• Conducted Triple S demonstrations

Emerging issues
• Planting a crop for seed root production
• Curing roots before storage
• Using roots coming from clean (tissue
culture material)

Objectives
Farmers to appreciate the use of clean planting material
Determine how many seasons the clean material can be
re-cycled on farmers fields

Effects of curing and storage options on the
shelf life of harvested orange sweetpotato roots
in Uganda
Kyalo, G., Mwanga, R., Namanda S. & Low, J.
Objective:
• Prolong the shelf life of stored roots without
compromising the organoleptic characteristics
Progress:
• Poster will be presented by Gerald at ACSS
conference
