CPP vegetable cluster

Author: 
Jill Lenn??; Andrew Ward

A lesson learning study on the Crop Protection Programme's cluster of vegetable projects in East Africa with special emphasis on links with the private sector was carried out by a study team during November/December 2004. The main objectives of the study were to: identify how outputs from the CPP vegetable cluster have contributed to the needs of major stakeholders in the horticulture sector in Kenya; and to describe strategy, impact and management lessons learnt in terms of private sector engagement in horticulture in Kenya.
