N2Africa in Tanzania and Uganda- 2016
• Capacity building of farmers, extension staffs and agro-dealers on legume technologies through on-farm demos and adaptation trials.
• Facilitation of Private Public Partnership (PPP) towards supply of knowledge, rhizobia inoculants, fertilizers and legume seeds.
• Established business clusters around legume market and value addition.

N2Africa- Tanzania and Uganda 2017
• Deliver variety x inoculants x nutrient management recommendations to target legume production areas based on yield gap analysis.
• Deliver labor-saving pre- and post harvest legume tools to women famers.
• Deliver legume product-enriched food baskets for small families.
• Develop an ICT system for input and out put market demand to facilitate linkages with producer groups.

• Aflasafe KE01™ was launched in Kenya.• Kenya Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries
purchased 238 tons of aflasafe KE01 to treat maize crops in 10 aflatoxin-prone counties.
• IITA and KALRO are constructing a modular plant to manufacture the product at KALRO Katumani.
• TTA Agreement on aflasafe KE01™ signed.
Aflasafe - 2016
www.iita.orgA member of the CGIAR System Office
Aflasafe- 2016• Build capacity to produce
Aflasafe and team produced 10 tons in 2016, Tanzania (3 tons), Mozambique (4 tons), Malawi (3 tons).
• Conducted 160 efficacy trials for groundnuts and maize; aflatoxin reduced by 70 to 99%.
• Raised awareness for aflatoxin by distributing more than 3000 flyers at various forums, including agricultural, conferences.
www.iita.orgA member of the CGIAR System Office
Aflasafe -2017• MALF has plans to enable farmers to apply Aflasafe
KE01 in at least 500,000 ha in Kenya.• Conduct more trails to test efficacy of Aflasafe in
Tanzania.• Develop a dossier for registering Aflasafe in Tanzania.• Produce 16 tons of Aflasafe for Zambia, Mozambique,
Malawi and Tanzania.• Raise awareness of stakeholders on health impacts of
aflatoxin and strategies to minimize contamination, including use of Aflasafe.
• Modular plant to manufacture aflasafe will be functional in Kenya.

SARD-SC Project in Tanzania-2016Agricultural Innovations and technologies development• Four new cassava varieties were officially released• Planting materials multiplied and distributed to 685
individual households and 18 farmer groups with over a total of over 1500 members
• Validation of best-fit agricultural technologies and innovations Assessment of increasing rate of N, P and K and
different formulation of fertilizer (NPK) on cassava yield Suitability of different cassava production systems for
increased sustainability and productivity Effects of different plant densities and leaves harvest
frequencies on root and leaf yields in cassava Mechanical cassava planter was evaluated
www.iita.orgA member of the CGIAR System Office
Dissemination of agricultural innovations/ technologies• Established 3 local Innovation Platforms (IPs) in Zanzibar, Dodoma and Kigoma• Established 64 demo plots for best-fit agricultural technologies• Enhanced farmers’ access to planting materials of improved varieties • Promotion of improved processing technologies
Capacity building• Construction and equipping of 1 pilot cassava processing centre in Dar es Salaam• Upgrading 4 community Cassava Processing centers in Zanzibar and Kigoma region• Empowerment of women groups and mentoring youths in agribusiness in Zanzibar
and Kigoma
Plans for 2017• Out-scaling selected agricultural innovations and technologies

• In Tanzania the project is implemented by NARS and development partners in 4 zones - Lake, Eastern, Southern and Zanzibar regions.
• Development partners facilitate the use of the decision support tools through awareness creation and dissemination networks.
ACAI Project
• Fertilizer recommendation/blending and staggered planting implemented.

Research: Develop, test, validate and refine scalable integrated technologies that equitably optimize productivity for specific agro-ecologies.
Scaling: Identify entry points for Sustainable Intensification of smallholder agricultural production systems allows rural households to make more efficient use of the resources available to them to produce more without compromising the needs of future generations.
Two objectives: Research & Scaling

Africa Rising- Objectives
1. Introducing and promoting improved and resilient varieties of food crops (maize-legume, rice, vegetables);
2. Disseminating best-bet agronomic management packages;
3. Protecting land and water resources and foster agricultural biodiversity;
4. Introducing and promoting postharvest management technologies to reduce losses and bring quality up to market standards;
5. Enhancing capacities of local communities.
