Consumers have their say @Cirad -led project, RTBfoods, is finding innovative ways to satisfy consumer demand for new crop varieties bit.ly/2XOsXqQ @IITA_CGIAR
Farmers may not be motivated to cooperate to manage #cropdisease unless they understand how it spreads from one farm to another. Building avenues of cooperation, through apps and local organizations, can also help motivate farmers to work together. bit.ly/3AGgYcL @WUR
In 2020, RTB supported a virtual symposium and a masterclass to share information on how #TR4 spreads, how to diagnose it and insights into future control methods. @CGIAR @BiovIntCIAT_eng Learn more: bit.ly/39wsOKI
BBTD Alliance has fostered cutting-edge R4D, established practical solutions so farmers can again produce bananas for food and income. It has built capacity among national programs in the detection, surveillance, and control of #BBTD. @BiovIntCIAT_eng bit.ly/3hZZtNd
Mothers of young children visiting health clinics for checkups in #Peru receive vouchers for seed of potatoes high in #iron. The women and their families learn about growing these potatoes, so children and pregnant women eat more of them. bit.ly/3AGhGqr @Cipotato @CGIAR
A ground-hugging crop, the #sweetpotato is ideal for resisting the ravages of tropical storms. Sweetpotato varieties are also being bred and released for salt- and drought resistance, making them an important crop for adapting to #climatechange. bit.ly/3o4Gq8k @Cipotato

Seed systems for vegetatively propagated crops are often governed with cereal crops in mind. If regulatory seed frameworks are adapted to RTB crops they can unlock a major bottleneck to broader impact. @CGIAR @BiovIntCIAT_eng @CGIAR @IITA_CGIAR Learn more: bit.ly/3o1bVjF
“ #Partnership is a crucial aspect of our success,” @GrahamThiele, RTB director. “We look forward to partnering even more closely with people at @WUR as we all work to embed effective scaling into the #OneCGIAR research portfolio.” Learn more: bit.ly/3AH4tOt @CGIAR
Recent studies on how farmers in Ethiopia, Tanzania & Uganda supply their banana, cassava, potato & sweetpotato seed needs can inform efforts to improve farmer access to quality planting material for those crops 👉🏽 bit.ly/3qIJGb8 @CGIAR @jamesplegg @IITA_CGIAR

Planting low quality banana 🍌, cassava potato 🥔 or sweetpotato 🍠 seed hinders food production across Africa. Recent research confirms to potential of @RTB_CGIAR seed systems tools to improve farmer access to quality seed 🌱. 👉🏽 bit.ly/Quality-Seed #OneCGIAR #NoPoverty
Men and #women often have different ideas about what matters most in a crop variety depending on their relationship to it. The G+ tools are helping breeders develop varieties that meet these different demands Read how: bit.ly/3chRxUv #GenderinAg @Cipotato @RTB_CGIAR
In the coming decades, #potatoes will play an important role in 🌍 #foodsecurity. Research shows that more potato production with the same or fewer resources may be the key to meeting the challenge of transforming #foodsystems. @RTB_CGIAR | @Cipotato bit.ly/3otuP2A
@Cipotato works with several businesses to incorporate orange-fleshed sweetpotato 🍠 puree as a key ingredient in baked and fried products, thus replacing up to 40% of wheat flour in bread, buns, and biscuits. 👉🏽 bit.ly/PB-SPSeed 🔸 @RTB_CGIAR 🔸 @Irish_Aid
"Potato is the 3rd most important crop globally. It produces more calories per hectare. @RTB_CGIAR crops are tolerant to stresses." Dr. Rodney Cooke @Cipotato Board Chair #CIP50 #OneCGIAR
