African Cassava Agronomy Initiative is a 5-year project funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation.
The project aims to increase the availability of appropriate and affordable technologies to sustainably improve cassava productivity in the short- and long-term.

Our Mission is to develop and deploy cassava agronomy recommendation tools to intensify cassava farming, improve root starch quality and reduce the yield gap within a 5-year project tenure that seeks to engage 100,000 households and generate value worth US$ 28 million.

Our Vision is to deliver the necessary knowledge base and tools for accessing this knowledge to cassava scaling partners and ultimately farmers in the target countries while instituting the necessary capacity and skills for national system scientists to engage in transformative cassava agronomy.
