In a groundbreaking collaboration with Solynta, Quadraat Global is spearheading efforts to revolutionize Kenya’s potato value chain through the introduction of hybrid true potato seeds. With a steadfast commitment to Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) responsibilities, this initiative aims to enhance sustainability and productivity while empowering smallholder farmers.
Quadraat Global’s recent partnership with Solynta, a leader in hybrid potato breeding based in the Netherlands, marks a significant step towards transforming potato farming practices in Kenya. By promoting the adoption of hybrid true potato seeds among local farmers, the project seeks to provide access to advanced cultivars, sourced from True Seed, to drive increased yields and ecological resilience.
A pivotal aspect of this endeavor is the comprehensive field assessment conducted by Johan te Velde and Michel de Voogd, representatives of Quadraat Global. Their meticulous examination of farming communities underscores the importance of community support mechanisms in ensuring equitable benefits throughout the potato value chain. This collaborative approach not only reflects the dedication of Solynta and Quadraat Global to sustainable agricultural practices but also emphasizes their commitment to fostering community empowerment in Kenya.
