Abstract
From 26 to 29 August 2025, a team from the International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA), in collaboration with the Alliance of Bioversity International and CIAT, visited Kisumu County to follow up on the Community Seed Bank (CSB) support program initiated under the CGIAR Nature Positive Solutions Initiative.
The mission focused on the following key activities:
• Upgrading and operationalizing post-harvest seed processing equipment provided under the N+ initiative.
• Training CSB members on post-harvest handling, seed quality, and management; and
• Designing and implementing demonstration activities related to crop catalogues and the enhancement of the Early Generation Seed (EGS) production manual.
