New solar Kenya’s first solar-powered “bubble” drier, improves bean quality and commercial value, retaining nutritious qualities before they are turned into a porridge flour. It has been donated to farmers and partners shown in a training session here at ICIPE campus in Nairobi on December 9th, as part of a project “Making Value Chains Work for Food and Nutrition Security of Vulnerable Populations in East Africa,” which aims to reach around five million small holder farmers in Uganda and Kenya benefiting 50,000 rural and urban consumers.
The project is supported by BMZ and GIZ; The CGIAR Research Program on Agriculture for Nutrition and Health and CGIAR donors. It is a joint project between the Pan-Africa Bean Research Alliance initiative and DAPA-Linking Farmers to Markets. The project is led by the International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT), in collaboration with The University of Hohenheim (UHOH), University of Göttingen (UGOE), Kenya Agriculture and Livestock Research Organization (KALRO) and Ugandan National Agricultural Research Organization (NARO).
