Protocol
The cultivation guidelines/protocols we provide to sweet potato growers on our platform guides them in selecting good vines with appropriate number of nodes to enable healthy vine establishment. The guidelines take the grower through the land preparation process, guiding the farmer through the application of integrated pest management strategies to protect their crops from pests and diseases. Likewise, the guidelines recommend a fertilizer program that takes care of the nutritional needs of the crops from seed to harvest.
