The project aims to introduce modern vegetable production of selected high nutrition-rich vegetables and develop value chains to provide vegetables in fresh and dried form to BoP consumers. The project targets 8,000 farmers and 100 cooperatives and agents in two countries (Kenya / Tanzania). It contains a diverse set of four outputs touching upon all angles of the value chain (both pull and push factors) with special focus on BoP consumers.
