4. Summary/conclusions
The objective of the study was to examine whether sweetpotato can play a more significant role
in livestock production in East Africa, under what conditions it can play such a role, where it
could make the most noteworthy contribution, and what research and development activities
need to be carried out to realize this potential.
The study found:
o Sweetpotato can play the most significant role in livestock feed in East Africa in the
partial replacement of Napier grass used as feed mainly for dairy cow and goats, and
even for pigs.
o CIP-SSA sweetpotato breeders estimate that in East Africa the advanced forage
varieties should easily yield 35 ton/ha of vines per season (i.e., 70 ton/ha/year), and up
to 60 ton/ha per season (120 ton/ha/yr) under more favorable agro-ecological conditions
and farmer management.
o At this level of productivity, forage sweetpotato reduces the cost of production by
reducing the amount of land required to feed one animal (for dairy cows and goats) by
