Situational Analysis of Breeder Seed Use and Delivery in Nigeria and Ghana

The SeEDEQUAL Initiative is an integral part of Genetic Innovation in the One CGIAR Action Area. It is intended for a better CG/NARS breeding impact by focusing on delivering genetic gain of crops in farmers’ fields and an enhanced varietal turnover through formal and farmer-based seed delivery channels. Work package 3 of the initiative is geared towards scaling and delivery of planting materials of vegetatively propagated crops. In the case of yam, it aims to understand channels for use of Breeder seed to prime sustainable formal seed system.
