About

The Department for International Development awarded a contract to WYG International Limited for a research programme aimed at delivering sustainable intensification of agriculture in Sub-Saharan Africa.

The programme's objective was to generate an evidence base on effective investments and barriers to technology adoption, particularly for women and poorer farmers, to enable their wider participation in the market economy.

The research targeted Ethiopia, Tanzania, Ghana, Malawi, Mali, and Zambia, with the expected outcome that decision makers and investors at international, national, and local levels would have access to evidence on what works and what is unlikely to work in reaching these groups.

The contract value was £7,680,730.
