Early generation seed multiplication for Four (4) Orange fleshed sweetpotato (OFSP) varieties have been conducted in the greenhouse producing almost 80 bundles that have been distributed to community-based seed multipliers for further multiplication. Up to this reporting period, 40 farmers have been trained on vine multiplication through UU support.
