Comparative analysis for producing sweetpotato pre-basic seed using sandponics and conventional systems
In Sub-Saharan Africa, sweetpotato pre-basic seed is multiplied in screenhouses using a sterilized soil substrate. This is expensive and unsustainable. The use of sand substrate with a fertigation system (“sandponics”), is an alternative. The study compared the cost-effectiveness for pre-basic seed...
