African Farmers Get a Boost: Inside the Work of the African Vegetable Breeding Consortium (AVBC)
The #African #Vegetable #Breeding #Consortium (AVBC), led by the World Vegetable Centre and AFSTA Seed Trade Association (AFSTA), is giving seed companies access to high-yielding, climate-smart, pest- and disease-resistant vegetable varieties.
From tomatoes to okra, these improved seeds are boosting farmers’ harvests, fighting malnutrition, and strengthening food security across the continent.
