The author of the orange-fleshed sweet potato paper I talked about a couple of days ago has kindly informed me that the answer to the question I posed is that the impact of the dissemination of these new varieties in Uganda has indeed been measured, but just hasn’t been published yet. There was apparently a big multidisciplinary study in 2007-2009 both in Uganda and Mozambique, and the results are due to come out in the near future. Good to hear, and many thanks, Robert. In the meantime, we have the following snippet from an IFPRI publication to whet our collective, er, appetite.
