An exciting event recently took place in Kenya amidst the lush landscapes of Murang’a county. The lush landscapes served as the backdrop for the Kilimo Biashara Expo, organized by the Kenya Agricultural and Livestock Research Organization (KALRO) on March 14th and 15th, 2024. This wasn’t your run-of-the-mill agricultural gathering; it was a celebration of innovation and collaboration in the industry.
At the heart of the expo was the Technologies for African Agricultural Transformation (TAAT) initiative, shining a spotlight on the orange-fleshed sweetpotato (OFSP) compact technologies led by the International Potato Center (CIP).
