Dataset for: Viable Sweetpotato Technologies in Africa (VISTA) Endline Survey

The Viable Sweetpotato Technologies in Africa (VISTA) – Tanzania project was designed to expand the production and utilization of nutritious OFSP into seven districts in Mbeya, Iringa and Morogoro regions which were part of USAID’s Feed the Future (FTF) zones of influence (ZOI).

An End line survey was conducted in August to September 2017 with the major objective of measuring the changes achieved as compared to the baseline survey conducted in October to November 2015 before the project intervention was initiated among the beneficiaries. Key areas of measurement included: knowledge on sweetpotato and OFSP production and farming practices among households; knowledge on Vitamin A and Vitamin A rich foods including OFSP; contribution of OFSP to improved Vitamin A intake among households; and consumption of OFSP and other Vitamin A rich foods by caregivers and children aged 6-59 months old.
