Replication Data for: Marando Bora Decentralised Vine Multiplier Study (Tanzania)

Marando Bora had a target of reaching 150,000 farmers with quality planting material of existing local and improved varieties which will contribute to strengthened food security. The survey of decentralised vine multipliers (DVMs) was conducted as part of the Marando Bora project end line survey.

The objectives of the DVM module were to: determine use of different technologies which had been promoted by the project; obtain feedback on varieties preferred by the DVMs and their clients; and feedback on participation in the pilot Quality Declared Planting Material (QDPM) inspection scheme. Finally, we sought to understand what vine multiplication activities the DVMs were continuing after the end of the project, and their reasons for continuing or not continuing vine multiplication.
