Annual Report 2011
The International Potato Center (known by its
Spanish acronym CIP) is a research-for-development organization with a
focus on potato, sweetpotato, and Andean roots and tubers. CIP is dedicated
to delivering sustainable science-based solutions to the pressing world issues
of hunger, poverty, gender equity, climate change and the preservation of
our Earth’s fragile biodiversity and natural resources.
Our vision is roots and tubers improving the lives of the poor. Our mission is to work with partners to achieve food security, well-
being, and gender equity for poor people in root and tuber farming and food
systems in the developing world. We do this through research and innovation
in science, technology, and capacity strengthening.

In 2011, the CIP Board of Trustees met in Beijing China, along with China’s Minister of Agriculture Han. Pictured from left to right are: S. Ayyappan, Jose Valle-Riestra, Stella Williams, Simon Best, Pamela K. Anderson (CIP, DG), Hon. Han Changfu (Minister of Agriculture), Peter VanderZaag (Board Chair), Phyllis Kibui, Zhang Taolin (Vice-Minister of Agriculture), Lu Xiaoping.
2011 was an exciting year for CIP. We celebrated the Center’s 40th anniversary
and set into place a new organizational structure to lead CIP’s management and research
agenda into a new decade of growth, challenges, and opportunities.
Today, CIP employs a staff of over 600 people, spread across offi ces in nearly 30 diff erent
countries. In the coming years, we anticipate that CIP’s size and reach will expand considerably.
The organization’s complexity and expected growth require strong, sophisticated management
– including a full complement of senior-level administrators. They also drive the need for a
fl atter structure to decentralize decision-making and accountability, while also recognizing
the strong and diverse leadership talent base of our staff around the world.
This year, CIP instituted a new level of senior leaders at CIP headquarters and in its four regions.
Several new positions were created. For the fi rst time, CIP has a Chief Operating Offi cer (COO),
Chief Financial Offi cer (CFO), and Deputy Director for the CIP China Center for Asia and the
Pacifi c (DDG-CCCAP). In addition, there are four new Regional Operations Leaders (ROLs) for
each of CIP’s global regions: Latin America-Caribbean (LAC); Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA); South,

the Board Chair
West and Central Asia (SWCA); and East and Southeastern Asia-Pacifi c (ESEAP). This group
will serve to help strengthen management processes, further cross-center coordination, and
ensure effi cient program management, donor relations, and accountability.
Another important organizational change in 2011 included the refi nement of CIP’s research
areas. New Regional Scientifi c Leader (RSL) positions were created for Potato or Sweetpotato in
each of CIP’s global regions. The number of Global Scientifi c Leaders (GSLs) was also expanded
to refl ect the growing importance of cutting-edge work being conducted in CIP’s global
programs. Along with providing scientifi c leadership and oversight, these leaders identify and
coordinate cross-cutting issues across regions or between geographic and global programs.
Finally, seven Research Support Units were identifi ed, with a Manager for each and a Head to
oversee them all. Each unit has specifi c infrastructures, capital, instrumentation, facilities, and
talent needed to deliver research support services and create new business opportunities.
CIP maintained solid fi scal management in 2011, despite a year of fi nancial uncertainties due to
global economic conditions, and in a context of major system and funding structure changes.
The consortium of international agricultural research centers, known as the CGIAR, of
which CIP is a member, began implementation of fundamental reforms in 2011. These
included transformations in funding structures, organizational framework, and cross-center
collaborations. The approval and implementation process for 15 new cross-organizational
CGIAR Research Programs (CRPs) was begun. CIP participates in seven of the CRPs. It leads the
CRP on Roots, Tubers, and Bananas, which was formally approved in November and is set to
begin implementation on January 1, 2012.
Like CIP, the CGIAR also celebrated a 40th anniversary in 2011. As we pass this auspicious
milestone together, we look forward to a promising future, built on the legacies of our shared
investments, and turned to meet the challenges of a changing world.
We are grateful to CIP’s staff , partners, and donors for their dedication and support.
CIP’s is a great mission. We look forward to advancing it together for decades to come.
Peter VanderZaag
Chair, CIP Board of Trustees
In 2011, CIP celebrated its 40th anniversary. We are very proud of this
milestone, and of the innovations and advances that have resulted from CIP’s four decades of
commitment to agricultural research for development.
For this edition of CIP’s Annual Report, we have chosen to feature some of the impacts of CIP’s
work, recognizing that much of the progress we measure today builds upon four decades of
research investment and dedication.
CIP recently conducted an analysis of returns on investment in CIP activities. The results showed
that annual net benefi ts from CIP research have exceeded $225 million for the last 10 years. It
is an impressive sum, which clearly represents an excellent rate of return for our donors.
The analysis of returns was based on 15 impact assessment case studies, spanning an
array of “technologies” (e.g., new varieties, improved seed or seed systems, integrated pest
management) and regions around the globe. The case studies evaluate economic and poverty
reduction impacts for targeted CIP activities, conducted in collaboration with national
agricultural research systems (NARS) and other key partners.
The introductory story in this Annual Report highlights the analysis of returns study in greater
detail. Subsequent stories feature examples of some of the breadth of CIP’s impacts, from
the provision of global public goods to illustrations of how they have changed the lives of
individual end users.
The stories in this report also demonstrate that often the eff ects of our research-for-
development eff orts stretch beyond economic impacts to include benefi ts such as increased

benefi ts include such things as greater preservation of biodiversity, better use of underutilized
root and tuber crops, and more resilient food systems, which are more diffi cult to quantify.
I would like to take this opportunity to recognize all of the individuals who have worked
with CIP over the past four decades as researchers, staff members, advisors, and leaders.
We are also deeply grateful to the donors, policymakers, and other key partners who have
supported us, often taking deep personal interest in the priorities, course, and outcomes of
CIP’s work. Finally, I want to acknowledge the role of all of our stakeholders, from the Heads of
State, business leaders, and donors to the individual extension workers, lab technicians, and
smallholder farmers. By sharing their ideas, inputs, and innovations they have helped us to
keep our research targeted and grounded in reality.
Thank you one and all. May we continue to work together successfully through the decades to
come, advancing CIP’s vision of roots and tubers improving the lives of the poor.

For CIP’s donors, the return on investment in
CIP represents a handsome dividend, indeed.
But the real benefi ciaries of investments in
agricultural research for development (R4D)
are the research stakeholders and end-users
who reap the rewards of new technologies,
capacity strengthening, and improved
opportunities. CIP end-users range from
semi-subsistence women potato farmers in the
East African highlands to small sweetpotato-
producing households in mixed crop-livestock
systems in Asia, and poor potato consumers in

Latin America. They also include stakeholders
in National Agricultural Research Services
(NARS) and partners from public, private, not-
for-profi t, academic, and other sectors.
The challenge for R4D organizations like CIP
is that large-scale impacts require sustained,
long-term investments. It was not until 1990–
nearly 20 years after its founding – that CIP was
able to “get out of the red” with returns from
research projects exceeding the organization’s
annual budget. As CIP technologies matured,
the impacts of those investments continued
to increase. By the mid-1990s, they were
generating seven times more economic
value on a yearly basis than CIP’s annual
expenditures.
Much of the “bang for the
buck” measured through
CIP impact studies has
resulted from improved
seed technologies and the
development of improved
varieties. Integrated pest
management practices also
fi gure increasingly in return
on investment calculations.

studies measuring the adoption of an array
of technologies developed by CIP and its
partners. In each case, the studies identify who
benefi ts from the use of the technology and
where, the adoption profi le, and the additional
total value that accrues from its use over time.
Since benefi ts accumulate over a long period
of time and the profi le of benefi ts varies with
each technology, researchers apply a discount
when summing future benefi ts to calculate
the net present value of the investment.
Table 1 presents estimated returns on
investment for various CIP technologies by
crop and by region as documented in the
impact studies. For example, the most recent
study of varietal adoption in potatoes shows
that by 2008, CIP-related varieties covered over
one million hectares worldwide. Applying a
discount rate of 5% gives a net present value of
the investment in improved potato varieties of
more than $121 million.
The estimates in Table 1 are conservative. Not
all success stories have been documented,
nor does all CIP’s work lend itself to economic
measurements. CIP’s role in the preservation
of biodiversity maintains options for
varietal change for future generations. CIP’s
contributions to human capital development,
and to other livelihood assets such as physical
capital and improved social cohesion,
are undeniably important benefi ts. But
quantifying these additional gains entails
extensive research. Because impacts usually
occur outside the time frame of a standard
project, special attention needs to be given
to funding impact work and developing an
impact culture in the planning, funding, and
implementation of research programs.
The trend toward lower investment in long-
term global research initiatives, such as
breeding, threatens to compromise these
advances. Likewise, pressures from donors
to produce short-term results for targeted
programs are moving investment away
from up-stream research that may produce
the biggest impacts in the longer run.
Impact studies have an important role in
demonstrating the value of this strategic
research, raising awareness and ensuring
continued donor investment.

Stories
14 International Potato Center • Annual Report 2011
Christine Nashuru cuts the fi gure of a traditional Maasai woman, tall and shy. She lives in the Transmara District of Kenya, in the southwestern Rift Valley Province. Christine did not access formal education, but thanks to a CIP-led training course, she has pioneered the production of seed potato in her district. Christine sold over 10.3 tons of seed potato in 2010, worth over US$4,000, and she is expecting more than 80 tons of seed from her 4 acres for 2011.
This is an unusual role for a Maasai woman. By tradition, the pastoralist Maasai are consummate cattle-herders. “I hope your cattle are well”, is a standard greeting.
But potatoes are taking on increased importance in Transmara District, and in the region more broadly, with rising demand. Yields remain low, however, for many farmers who lack access to quality seed or awareness of better seed management practices.
In August 2009, Christine was selected to attend a course on potato seed production held in Nairobi and organized by CIP. The course focused on the use of three-generation (3G) seed multiplication strategy.
The 3G seed strategy is geared to producing large numbers of minitubers, to be used as seed, through very rapid multiplication. The point is to yield suffi cient, high-quality potato seed more quickly than through conventional methods - in three fi eld generations, instead of the usual seven required. The rapid multiplication means production costs are lowered, and the risk of pest or disease contamination is reduced.
CIP is leading 3G projects in Kenya, Rwanda, and Uganda, with public and private partners.
SEEDS OF SUCCESS

15,000 African smallholder growers are reaping
higher yields and increased incomes thanks to
capacity strengthening and improved potato
production technologies.

The private sector collaboration is key to increasing capacity and broadening adoption of quality seed. It also helps accelerate the availability of improved varieties that are more adapted to local conditions and demands. With increased adoption of the 3G strategy and better management techniques, average yields have increased by 20% for more than 15,000 smallholder potato growers.
As for Christine, she has never looked back. Not only is she driving better seed production in her district, she is also training other farmers in her region, mostly women, to produce better seed and ware potatoes. As one of her trainees notes, “Christine is now a darling of the village; she is like light put on a hill for all to see her success. She has brought seed to our doorstep and trained us in potato production. We now feed our families with the nutritive potatoes.”
See: Video “Seed for Change” about the role of potatoes in Africa at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDdZN1_zibQ
The stories of success
Amon Mgendi, a potato farmer in the Taita district of Kenya, has been practicing potato farming for several decades. But his opportunity to make it a lucrative business only presented itself after the 3G training.
“I started planting potatoes in 1984,” says Amon, “but the problem was lack of quality seed. For a long time I relied on potatoes from the local markets as seed. Many times it was disastrous, as my crop was often damaged by diseases. The training opened my eyes, and now I can fi nance other projects with the proceeds from potatoes.”
Amon has been planting about one acre of seed every season, garnering a net profi t of about $600 (KSh. 50,000). More than 100 potato farmers have since benefi ted from his seed. Unlike his neighbors, whose potato crop reeled under devastating eff ects of bacterial wilt and late blight in 2011, his farm stands out as center of excellence. With the earning from his potatoes, Amon has started a retail shop and a posho mill (for grinding wheat or maize into fl our).
Christine and Amon are not alone. According to the district reports, there are approximately 60 trained farmers working either individually or in groups who are now doing seed business in Kenya – up from only 20 when the project began.
“Christine is now a darling of the
village; she is like light put on a hill
for all to see her success.”

SWEETPOTATOIN PERPETUITY:
insurance for a changing world
A new agreement between CIP and the Global
Crop Diversity Trust is paving the way to support,
conserve, and make available sweetpotato
varieties today, and for the future.
The sweetpotato germplasm collection at CIP comprises 7,777 accessions, including 4,615 landraces (native varieties), 1,984 breeding lines (improved varieties), and 1,178 samples of wild sweetpotato. They originate from Asia, Africa, the Americas, and the Pacifi c Islands. It is the largest and most diverse sweetpotato collection in the world. The purpose of the collection is to conserve living samples to ensure that genetic resources are available now for use by farmers, plant breeders, and researchers, and that they are secure for the long term.
Sweetpotato is the potato of the tropics. It is a tough crop, able to grow in high temperatures and arid conditions with little demand for either water or fertilizer. Sweet potato ranks as the world’s seventh most important food crop, principally because of its versatility and adaptability.
The material preserved in CIP’s genebank holds great promise for the future. Sweetpotato is thought to have much potential for yield improvement, and the orange-fl eshed varieties are a highly eff ective food for combating rampant vitamin A defi ciency in Sub-Saharan Africa and parts of Asia.
In 2007, sweetpotato experts from around the world gathered at a CIP-organized workshop in the Philippines to address the concern that
the precious biodiversity of sweetpotato could be lost. “There was clear agreement among the participants of the need to regenerate sweetpotato material, which was at risk of being lost due to climate change,” explains Genoveva Rossel, sweetpotato curator for CIP’s genebank.
The workshop led to an agreement, signed in 2011, between CIP and the Global Crop Diversity Trust to provide US$1 million over fi ve years from the Trust to support the sweetpotato collection in CIP’s genebank.
One of the principle functions of a genebank is to duplicate and maintain clonal collections to secure their conservation and use. The genetic diversity they hold is critical for developing varieties that can adapt to diff erent needs and preferences of producers and consumers, and to the shifting pressures and conditions associated with climate change.
The sweetpotato accessions are conserved in the genebank both as seeds and as in vitro plantlets. Cryopreservation is also used to preserve plant material indefi nitely. CIP is collaborating with the Global Crop Diversity Trust and researchers from six collaborating countries to develop cryo-preservation protocols, standardizing methodologies for long-term preservation of sweetpotato accessions.
“Sweetpotato specialists are a very collaborative group, here at CIP and globally,” notes Rossel. “We work with colleagues across all parts of CIP, whether it’s regarding the identifi cation of selected clones for improved varieties, analysis of nutritional value and quality, genetic analysis, or ensuring the distribution of clean material for colleagues and institutions around the world.”

The highlands of Peru are continuing to experience heavier than average rains and rising temperatures.
“Eff ects of climate change are making it so that formerly untouched areas are falling victim to the potatoes’ most feared disease, late blight, which is causing more damage with each year,” says CIP agronomist, Manuel Gastelo. Investigation by CIP suggests that small-scale farmers are not replacing traditional varieties with improved ones. Rather, as they are averse to risk, they grow the improved varieties along with numerous native ones as a sort of insurance against disaster. So far, it is a strategy that seems to be paying off .

of Peru was declared a national emergency area due to fl ooding, it was largely thanks to two CIP-developed late blight resistant potato varieties, called Pallay Poncho and Puka Lliclla, that the food security of local communities was preserved.
“Under high stress conditions, the yield of these two potatoes has been about 8-times higher than any of the 150 native potato varieties grown in the district,” explains Stef de Haan, CIP potato breeder. He adds, “they have made the diff erence between having enough to eat, or not.”
Under normal conditions, Pallay Poncho and Puka Lliclla give yields of 15-16 tons per hectare, compared to 5 tons per hectare with the traditional native potatoes. In periods of high late blight damage, the diff erence is even greater. The yields hold up for the improved varieties but drop to only around 2 tons per hectare for the traditional varieties.
The fi rst time that late blight began to wipe out potato harvests at higher altitudes in Peru was in 2003. CIP joined forces with the Peruvian Ministry of Agriculture and Peru’s National Institute of Agrarian Innovation (INIA) to address the problem. Twenty clones from CIP with expected late blight resistance went through evaluation and participatory selection with the 200 families in the aff ected area. After 5 years, the two clones with the best properties were chosen. They were offi cially

“Food security in Asia-Pacifi c is more than just cereals,” says Dindo Campilan, who, as CIP’s Regional Lead for South Western and Central Asia, has been a major proponent for expanding the understanding of the role and potential of root and tuber crops in the region. “Even in rice-based food systems,” explains Campilan, “roots and tubers rank among the top food staples in the region, providing aff ordable nutrition plus key opportunities to increase incomes through greater production and the development of higher value products.”
Some of CIP’s greatest impacts have been in the Asia-Pacifi c region. Signifi cant economic advances and gains in livelihood assets have been measured though impact studies. Examples range from the adoption of improved potato varieties and better disease management practices for sweetpotato in China to the use of sweetpotato as animal feed in Indonesia and Vietnam, among others.
The Asia-Pacifi c region has the highest production, consumption, and utilization of root and tuber crops in the world. Thus the potential for even greater impacts is vast. But the value of root and tuber crops remains underappreciated. Roots and tubers face a negative image in the region either as poor people’s food or as unhealthy and fattening.

They are also important crisis mitigation crops in the face of natural disasters, agro-environmental changes, or food price hikes. The global grain price crisis of 2008 helped bring greater attention to the importance of these crops. In 2011, this renewed interest culminated in a new CIP program, called Food Security Through Asian Root and Tuber Crops (FoodSTART).

FoodSTART includes partners from key national and regional research organizations, CGIAR centers, and development partners in the public, NGO, and private sectors. Target countries include China, India, Indonesia, Bangladesh, and the Philippines. There is an emphasis on indigenous communities (including ethnic minorities) and on women, as critical stakeholders for reaching household food security and nutrition objectives.
Priority locations are being determined through mapping and comprehensive data analysis to identify areas where reliance on root and tuber crops overlaps with high incidences of poverty and food insecurity. Forward-looking scenarios are assessing potential impacts of technological and policy interventions regarding root and tuber crops within the context of climate change pressures. Another emphasis of the program is on the versatility of root and tuber crops not only for home production, consumption, and sale but also as processed products and for use as animal feed.

SPEEDING BREEDING
to meet urgent needs in Mozambique
Fifteen drought-tolerant orange-fl eshed sweetpotato (OFSP) varieties and seven new potato varieties were released in Mozambique in 2011 thanks to exciting approaches designed to radically shorten the time it takes to develop improved varieties.
“We want to revolutionize conventional breeding, using accelerated breeding and other advanced breeding methods,” explains Robert Mwanga, a CIP sweetpotato breeder based in Uganda.
With sweetpotato, the goal is to get much needed OFSP to farmers more quickly to help combat widespread vitamin A defi ciency. CIP scientists and partners are using a method known as “accelerated breeding” to develop varieties rich in beta-carotene (for vitamin A) and suited to local needs, conditions, and preferences. “Accelerated breeding involves rapid multiplication of new varieties using many concurrent sites at early stages in the breeding cycle. This compares to conventional methods that use fewer sites over longer time periods,” explains Maria Andrade, a CIP sweetpotato breeder based in Mozambique. The method is cutting by half the time needed to develop new varieties.
The achievements are part of a program emphasis on breeding in Africa, for Africa. “We are investing in the development of diverse
sweetpotato types that will provide national programs with a wide range of ‘parents’ that have the preferred combination of characteristics to use in their own breeding programs,” says Mwanga.
The goal regarding potato is to lessen Mozambique’s costly dependence on imported seed, at a time when consumer demand for potato is rising. “With timely availability of seed for well-adapted varieties, we can enhance the sustainability and economics of potato production in Mozambique,” notes Dieudonne Harahagazwe, a CIP seed system specialist based in Malawi. In recent years, Mozambique’s government has been prioritizing food security, including the adaptation of agricultural regulations to fast track getting seeds to the fi eld.
CIP also works with partners to help ensure that new varieties actually reach smallholder farmers and enter into production, market, and consumption systems where their potential impacts on people’s lives can be realized.
The release of multiple new varieties at once not only helps end users, it also benefi ts researchers. “Usually, only one new variety is released at a time,” explains Merideth Bonierbale, who leads CIP’s global breeding program, “so there is little possibility to understand why one variety spreads quickly

A MAJOR BOOST FOR BIOFORTIFICATION:
new use of NIRS technology revolutionizing
A key tool pioneered and applied at CIP saves
time and money in the hunt for vitamin- or
mineral-rich crop samples.
Near-Infrared Refl ectance Spectroscopy may sound like a mouthful, but it represents a very useful and low-cost method for estimating concentrations of nutritional components in crops. Known as NIRS, it is now being used in a new way in CIP’s Quality and Nutrition Laboratory (QNLAB) that is radically strengthening the biofortifi cation program and its potential impacts on combatting malnutrition and its devastating consequences.
Biofortifi cation uses breeding to increase levels of nutrients such as iron, zinc, and vitamin A, which occur naturally in staple food crops. It is an eff ective and sustainable means for addressing nutrient defi ciencies and improving health outcomes, particularly for malnourished populations in remote areas.
“NIRS was traditionally used to analyze macronutrients such as protein, starch, and fat,” explains Thomas zum Felde, a CIP scientist who pioneered the adaptation of NIRS technology for evaluating critical micronutrients, such as iron, zinc, and pro-vitamin A carotenoids. The work is central to CIP’s biofortifi cation research eff orts, such as those aimed at boosting iron values in potato to address chronic anemia in the Andes and for combating vitamin A defi ciency in Africa and Asia with orange-fl eshed sweetpotato varieties, among others.
Large numbers of samples must be analyzed to identify those with naturally high nutrient values that can be used for biofortifi cation
breeding programs. NIRS provides a fast and low cost solution.
With NIRS, CIP scientists can analyze pro-vitamin A carotenoids, iron, zinc, protein, starch, glucose, fructose, and sucrose in potato and sweetpotato in less than two minutes for a cost of only US$5. In comparison, chemical analysis of pro-vitamin A carotenoids using High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) takes one hour at a cost of US$45 per sample. Similarly, chemical analysis of mineral content with Inductively Coupled Plasma spectrometry (ICP) requires 20 minutes and costs US$12 per sample.
“Imagine the cost and time savings for analyzing up to 40,000 samples annually that breeding programs at CIP require,” points out Zum Felde. Preparing samples for NIRS is also much simpler than for chemical analysis, and it does not require the use of chemical solvents. In the last four years, CIP´s Quality and Nutrition Lab has evaluated more than 130,000 sweetpotato samples and over 6,000 potato samples for breeding programs. The Lab has also collaborated with HarvestPlus under the umbrella of a NIRS feasibility study to evaluate nutrients in crops such as maize, wheat, rice, cassava, millet, and beans from other CGIAR centers (CIAT, CIMMYT, ICRISAT, IITA, and IRRI).
Based in Lima, the Quality and Nutrition Lab (QNLAB) is expanding its reach to create a global NIRS network. In 2011, that network began to facilitate the analysis of sweetpotato samples in SubSaharan Africa, including Uganda, Mozambique, and Ghana. Plans are to expand the network to Rwanda and China.

Future applications for NIRS may also include the ability to assess diff erent stress tolerances in crops, since NIRS can detect and evaluate the metabolites that plants produce when subjected to stress condition.
“We still have a lot of ideas to implement for meeting the needs of research,” concludes Gabriele Burgos, who leads CIP’s QNLAB. “Our vision is to be a worldwide reference laboratory for micronutrient analysis of root and tuber and other crops with a view to improving human health, reducing poverty, and alleviating hidden hunger.”

farmers.

Product innovations, such as this packaged chuño, have come from Papa Andina’s participatory methods linking small-scale producers to high value market chains.
“Selling native potatoes to the industry has changed our lives” says Victoriano Meza, a farmer from Peru’s central Andes. It has meant additional income to build a house for his family and equip it with satellite internet “so that my children can learn quickly and get a better future.” Mr. Meza is one of thousands of small-scale Andean farmers benefi tting from a new boom in the market for native potatoes, and from pro-poor innovations to link them to the native potato market chain, spearheaded by CIP’s Papa Andina program.
Papa Andina is a CIP partnership program, which works in collaboration with research organizations, public partners, the private sector, and NGOs. For over 10 years it has functioned as an innovation broker in the Andean potato sectors of Peru, Bolivia, and Ecuador.
Product innovations from Papa Andina have opened new market niches and brought higher prices for farmers. Examples include award-winning T’ikapapa (bagged native potatoes), packaged traditional dehydrated chuño, and native potato chips originally pioneered through Papa Andina’s Participatory Market Chain Approach (PMCA) and taken up by large, multi-national companies. By promoting the integration of corporate social responsibility, Papa Andina has helped ensure that the benefi ts of corporate involvement reach small farmers and are socially and environmentally sustainable.
Other Papa Andina results include new public policies and practices to invest in the sector, regulate product quality, and raise the profi le of native potatoes as a high-value product and cultural asset. For example, the establishment of an annual national potato day in Peru has elevated the native potato from poor man’s food to a point of national pride. Technological innovations spearheaded by Papa Andina range from improved seed systems for native potatoes to the application of integrated crop management techniques and improved post-harvest management using simple processing equipment.
The impacts of its projects and methods have benefi tted small-scale farmers and their families directly. In Bolivia, new potato products sold to supermarkets have enabled farmers to receive 30–40 percent higher prices than in traditional markets. The innovation network in Ecuador (Plataforma) has enabled farmers to raise yields by 33 percent, improving input:output ratios by 20 percent, resulting in a fourfold increase in gross margins per hectare.

Selling native potatoes to industry is changing lives and creating new opportunities for smallholder Andean farmers, and their families.
With more than 700,000 farming families working in the Andean potato sector, the indirect impacts are likely to be far greater, not only regarding incomes but also in terms of cultural, social, and personal assets. As notes farmer Nolberta Inostroza, “Now I produce and sell with less work, earn more, and take pride in sharing the native potatoes that I take care of, as my ancestors did before me.”
Added to these are further collateral benefi ts to farming communities and parallel sectors stemming from the boom in demand. In fact, demand is so strong that in spite of increasing supplies, prices for fresh and processed native potato products continue to rise.
Designed for the Andean context, the Papa Andina tools and methods also have been applied successfully elsewhere. For example, the Participatory Market Chain Approach has been adapted to train and connect farmers to sweetpotato or potato market chains in Africa and Asia, and to vegetable, milk, and coff ee value chains in Latin America.
The legacies of Papa Andina are particularly important as it faces its next decades. June 2011 marked the close out of the original Papa Andina Program, with a new iteration beginning in a broader context of food security across the Andean highlands. Its reach is expanding to include Colombia and Venezuela, along with the original targets of Peru, Ecuador, and Bolivia.
André Devaux, who has led Papa Andina, concludes: “Papa Andina has become a working model, even a philosophy, which will live on beyond the program itself. The model has created a horizontal space for eff ective interactions among diverse partners to better articulate research and development and to better address needs and improve livelihoods for small producers.”
“Now I produce and sell with less
work, earn more, and take pride in
sharing the native potatoes that
I take care of, as my ancestors did

Market chain producers, processors, wholesalers, and retailers work together to create and market innovative potato products.
Eff orts to support farmer capacity strengthening often focus on increasing production and improving crop management. While these skills are critical, the concept of developing marketing skills is often neglected or introduced only as an afterthought. Lessons from CIP success stories suggest, however, that introducing a business

orientation to smallholder producers can spur innovation and create greater linkages to value market chains. “For farmers to link with markets, they need to learn not only to produce, but to produce for the market,” says Dindo Campilan, CIP’s Regional Leader for South West and Central Asia, who has helped introduce Farmer Business Schools in his region.
Campilan’s insights are based on work conducted by CIP to introduce innovations for improving on-farm productivity, postharvest value addition, and market development. The Farmer Business School approach, being piloted in Indonesia, takes marketing as a starting point for determining what, how, and for whom to produce. It combines methodological elements of the Participatory Market Chain Approach – developed by CIP’s Papa Andina Program to increase innovation and market access for native potato farmers in the Andes – with farmer fi eld school and business learning approaches.
Success story: Ida Rosida of West Java, Indonesia, participated in the farmer business school training with the hope of enhancing her meager household income. She is now a full-time potato processing entrepreneur. Her specialized potato chips feature the intact potato skin and come in new varieties, based on consumer and retailer suggestions. They are marketed under the brand, Cumelly, which was an innovation of the farmer business school initiative.
Farmer business schools provide a group-based and participatory learning environment for smallholder farmers to foment marketing ideas, conduct small-scale experiments for improving crop quality and production, and pick up business skills. They learn to develop a business plan, use market analysis tools, and meet with market chain stakeholders such as industry representatives. Participants also pick up knowledge and strategies for handling supply chain issues.
Another benefi t of the Farmer Business School model is that it serves to support farming communities in using local resources – such as crop genetic diversity and traditional know-how – for selling products to elite urban consumers and supermarkets.
Business skills of negotiation and strategy play a key role, too. Successful farm business requires the capacity not only for technological change but also for nurturing relationships among market chain actors based on trust, collaboration, and coordination.

COW CAFETERIA:
using sweetpotato as animal feed
Lessons from CIP’s work in Asia are being applied
to improve options for livestock and dairy farmers
in East Africa
“You’re a livestock specialist, what are you doing working with sweetpotato?” Ben Lukuyu laughs as he describes this typical reaction from his colleagues at the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) in Nairobi, where he works with the multi-partner East African Dairy Development (EADD) project. But it is sweetpotato’s highly promising potential as an animal feed that interests Lukuyu, and has him teaming up with Sammy Agili, a CIP sweetpotato breeder and other public and private partners in East Africa. Their goal: to better exploit sweetpotato’s potential as a healthy and easily available livestock feed.
Two decades ago, CIP conducted similar research testing varieties of livestock forage using sweetpotato in countries such as Vietnam and China. Results showed that mixtures based on easily available resources were a clear formula for success: “The pigs are growing faster, their skins are shinier and best of all, it takes a lot less time to prepare feed for them,” was a comment from farmer Ta Van Hien in Pho Yen Province in 1999. More recently, a CIP project in Papua-Indonesia using sweetpotato-based formulas as pig feed showed positive impacts on farmers’ incomes and on other livelihood indicators, such as human capital, social cohesion, and physical structures.
“We are drawing on CIP’s many years of experience in Asia, where they successfully use sweetpotato in livestock systems,” says Lukuyu. “In China, 25-30% of sweetpotato crops are used
for animal feed.” Such work is particularly relevant in East Africa, which has the highest per capita consumption of livestock products (e.g., dairy cattle, pig, and goats for meat and milk) of Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). The project is part of CIP’s Sweetpotato Action for Security and Health in Africa (SASHA) initiative, which aims to reposition sweetpotato in food economies of SSA to alleviate poverty and undernutrition.
Currently, smallholder livestock and dairy producers in East Africa face increasing feed costs and challenges. High population pressures have increased the competition for grains as food or livestock feed. Major shortages occur during the dry season, and quality feed concentrates demand a price many cannot aff ord. Napier grass, which is used in Kenya as a primary feed for dairy farming, requires signifi cant allocations of land and is currently suff ering from a major outbreak of a disease called head smut and stunt.
Increased use and production of sweetpotato may provide a solution. Sweetpotato vines off er more protein and dry matter per unit area and require less land than other staple livestock feeds. Sweetpotato roots that are too small for human consumption or sale also make good feed.
CIP and EADD are working directly with pig and dairy farmers in Kenya, Rwanda, and Uganda. They are guiding adaptive participatory research to test the feasibility and business case for using sweetpotato vines as silage and leaf protein supplements. On-station and farm-based experiments

are testing low-cost silage-making techniques and diff erent blends using roots, vines, and other feeds. They are also trying varieties under diff erent cropping regimes and analyzing nutritional components under varying conditions.
“We like to call it the ‘cow cafeteria’,” explains Lukuyu. “We want to give farmers options for mixing sweetpotato vines and roots with locally available feed resources and come up with feeding strategies to best respond to their needs and demands.”

ONE SYSTEM, MANY GAINS
from a common CGIAR corporate
CIP is joining eight other CGIAR Centers and the Consortium Offi ce to integrate their diverse project, fi nancial, and human resource management systems into a common corporate platform, known as One Corporate System (OCS). The move is expected to create an automated and interconnected system that will boost effi ciencies, support greater cross-Center coordination, and result in better investments of donor funding.
OCS is a Center-driven initiative. CIP was an early proponent of the project, recognizing the economic and organizational gains to be derived from adopting a joint system. Current calculations suggest that each participating Center is saving approximately US$500,000 by implementing a common platform and purchasing a system jointly instead of individually. And there are signifi cant annual savings in equipment and maintenance costs associated with using a commonly hosted infrastructure.
Research and administrative teams from numerous Centers have invested considerable time and eff ort over several years to identify needs, align terminology, and analyze processes and requirements in preparation for the new system. In 2011, they devoted weeks to face-to-face workshops and reviews, along with multiple conference calls and remote meetings
to compare processes, test proposals and prototypes, and prepare for implementation.
OCS is already recognized as a model of CGIAR collaboration. “But it is also unconventional and complex,” notes Carlos Alonso, CIP’s Executive Director for Strategy and Corporate Development, who has been spearheading the project for CIP and coordinating much of the collaboration with other Centers.
Culling through the details of the system prototypes and design specifi cations has required enormous commitment, patience, and compromise from all the parties involved. The process has not been without its frustrations. “OCS involves 10 institutions scattered around the world, with 10 diff erent corporate cultures, diverse cultural backgrounds, and locations across many time zones,” notes Alonso. “But what makes this eff ort unique is that we are all inspired by a shared vision of doing things better and a common purpose to make OCS a success,” he concludes.
Finalization of the OCS design, reconciliation of Center systems to the common one (known as localization), training, and implementation of the new system are slated to begin in 2012 for a fi rst group of participating Centers. CIP will be among the initial implementers, along with the Consortium Offi ce and the International

TAPPING STAKEHOLDER SYNERGIES:
designing the new CGIAR Research
Incorporating stakeholder perspectives was a
critical part of the process of building a proactive
interaction to refi ne program components and
defi ne impact pathways.
How do you create a dynamic, interactive dialogue among 255 stakeholders, across three continents, in less than two months, when the goal is to design a new global program aimed at maximizing impacts? This was the challenge put to a team of collaborators from multiple organizations, which developed the CGIAR Research Program (CRP) on Roots, Tubers and Bananas for Food Security and Income. Their discovery: while not an ideal scenario, the pressures of a tight schedule, coupled with good will and new synergies, can sometimes lead to creative, successful outputs.
The CRPs are broad initiatives involving multiple CGIAR Centers and many partners. They are designed to advance the research objectives of the CGIAR system aimed at reducing poverty and hunger, improving health and nutrition, and enhancing ecosystem resilience. The CRPs refl ect an ethos that emphasizes proactive consultation with stakeholders for program design and implementation.
Putting that principle into practice is described in a new publication, co-authored by collaborators from each of the four CGIAR

Incorporating stakeholder perspectives in international agricultural research: the case of the CGIAR Research Program for Roots, Tubers and Bananas for Food Security and Income provides an instructive case-study of successful stakeholder consultation. It describes the process used to engage stakeholders and incorporate their feedback into program design, with lessons learned and experiences that can serve others looking to replicate, adapt, or build upon this example.
“This document not only off ers insights on how stakeholder consultation can eff ectively fl ag important priorities in the project design phase, but also what methods worked best in achieving quality interaction,” says Graham Thiele, leader of CIP’s Social and Health Sciences Division, who formed part of the intercenter group leading the design of the program proposal.
One interesting fi nding of the case-study regards the eff ectiveness of diff erent methods for gathering stakeholder input. To be as inclusive as possible with limited time and money, stakeholder input was gathered via regional workshops, on-line surveys, and one-on-one interviews, for a total of over 200 participants. Among those methods, the on-line surveys proved to be surprisingly agile and eff ective for gathering and integrating responses in real time, including “new ideas.” They garnered feedback from 150 respondents, with detailed responses which were in many cases quite novel, thoughtful, and highly useful for the program proposal.
This comment from the leader of an international NGO in Africa gives a fl avor: “Roots, tubers, and

bananas are not usually well positioned within agricultural extension, as decision makers do not have a full appreciation of their true importance. Quality data on true level of production, perhaps through remote-sensing methodologies, is an essential starting point.”
Input from stakeholders served to reaffi rm the importance of core components of the program, and also shed further light on cross-cutting issues, such as gender, climate change, knowledge sharing, and capacity strengthening.
“The perspectives of diff erent stakeholders raised our ability to refl ect a more integral understanding of challenges and opportunities. It makes the program planning more grounded, and ultimately more likely to achieve objectives that will result in real development impacts,” explains Vincent Johnson of Bioversity, who led the consultation taskforce. “Without this perspective, we could never have delivered a convincing program proposal within the deadline,” he concludes.

Expenditures (US$ thousands)
The International Potato Center’s total revenues reached US$33.8M in 2011, 2% below those of 2010. They included US$9.2M of unrestricted contributions, US$24M of restricted donations and US$0.6M of other revenues, consisting of interests earned on investments and exchange rate gains.
CIP achieved a USD$ 0.07M surplus in 2011. The Center’s reserves, measured as net assets minus net fi xed assets were USD$8.1M, a slight decrease with respect to 2010 due to the utilization of USD$0.6M in designated Net Assets for the implementation of a new Enterprise Resource Planning system.
Unrestricted contributions decreased by USD$2.2M in 2011 from USD$11.4M to USD$9.2M as a result of the transition from unrestricted contributions to the new CGIAR Research Programs, which are considered restricted contributions. Restricted contributions increased by USD$1.6M from USD$22.4M to USD$24M. During 2011, 41 new restricted proposals were submitted to donors, for a total of US$30.5M. In this same period, 36 proposals were approved, for a total value of US$22.1M.
