"Sarpo Potatoes Ltd will cooperate with Sustainable Farming Consultancy to develop clusters of growers of virus and blight resistant seed and ware potatoes to help satisfy increasing demand in the marketplace.
Three clusters of farmers recruited to grow seed to contract will work together and with different parts of supply chain. Growers will be trained in specialized growing techniques and in marketing low-input potatoes. Resource –sharing initiatives will include existing machinery rings. A Grower Manual will be produced."
