Descripción
In Sierra Leone, the agriculture sector plays a very significant role in the lives of the population of the country providing about 47 percent of the country’s GDP and employment for about 60 percent of the population. In the agricultural production cycle, seed is one of the most important inputs. Though seeds play a critical role in the improvement of crop productivity, the use of quality seeds is still very low in Sierra Leone. This present study of seed sector landscape analysis in Sierra Leone was to identify key bottlenecks to the development of the seed system and to develop and design relevant intervention areas to support the development of the sector in the country.
