Description To evaluate the cost benefit of the different rotation options (sweetpotato-rice, rice-rice, sweetpotato-sweetpotato) to provide basic "seed" (cuttings) in a timely manner to decentralized vine multipliers in the sweetpotato seed value chain and introduce seed of newly released rice varieties to farmers in and around the scheme. Financial data on cost of inputs, labour wages, outputs and market prices were also collected to assess the revenue to cost ratios of the sweetpotato-rice rotation compared to mono-cropping each crop.
