description The main innovation the use of the tricot crowdsourced citizen science approach for variety trials, which is a cost-effective way to massively test new climate-stress tolerant and nutritious crop varieties directly on farm, generating information about local adaptation/acceptability and disseminating the seeds in one go. ISSD-Ethiopia adopted this approach in its large-scale seed sector development programme and used the approach with 5,995 farmers, who subsequently shared seeds with others and created seed demand, affecting an estimated 1.3 million farmers.
