Product development for sweetpotato in Rwanda

1992

Tardif Douglin, D.G.

Detailed analysis of current production, consumption, and marketing practices in Rwanda indicate that considerable potential for expanded utilization of the crop currently exists. Furthermore, given population growth and the shrinking agricultural frontier, Rwandese farm households need improved methods for reducing postharvest losses and generating value added from the crop that they harvest. This paper examines various alternatives for storage and processing for sweetpotatoes. The results indicate that innovations in these two fields are both technically feasible and economically attractive.
