Strong Against Disease, Hot on the Market. Developed by the World Vegetable Center, this group of long pepper varieties are high-yielding, disease-resistant pepper varieties designed for climate-stressed and low-income regions. It contributes to food security, women’s empowerment, and smallholder income. With strong resistance to multiple diseases and high yield potential, it promotes sustainable agriculture with reduced chemical inputs. PS PEP 1 supports SDGs on poverty, hunger, gender equality, and climate action, making it an ideal entry point for climate-smart and inclusive agriculture programs in West Africa.
Better yield, less disease, more income A suitable option for vegetable projects aiming to stabilize production and farmer income: improved varieties with measured performance and available lines resistant to bacterial wilt and tomato yellow leaf curl virus, optimized for cool-season production.
Growing Prosperity: Climbing Beans for Food Security & Income Growth Climbing Bean with High Yield and N Fixation Technology improved bean varieties in Eastern and Southern Africa, by increasing yields compared to bush types beans, contributing to food security and higher incomes for farmers. These improved climbing bean varieties are resistant to common pests and diseases, reducing the need for chemical interventions. They can withstand various environmental stresses, enhancing their adaptability to different conditions. The technology promotes higher biological nitrogen fixation in climbing beans, reducing the cost for farmers and enabling cultivation in nitrogen-depleted soils. The adoption of these climbing bean varieties by small-scale farmers in Africa not only addresses hunger and malnutrition but also significantly improves their livelihoods.
