Resumen
Descripción
Sweetpotato o!ers great potential as an animal feed in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA)
but its potential use as a feed or dual purpose (food and feed) crop has not been
fully exploited. Dry season feed shortage has long been a problem in many parts
of SSA. Researchers have developed an improved silage tube and tested the
resultant sweetpotato silage on growing pigs with small-scale farmers in Kenya.
