EARRNET is an ASARECA network funded by USAID

EARRNET is a regional agricultural research and development network implementing a range of activities to strengthen the root crop and particularly cassava sub-sector in the ASARECA region.

The network has six research themes, plays a catalytic role in the delivery of new technologies with a range of public and private sector partners and also provides research training and information about cassava.

EARRNET is seeking partnerships with a range of public and private sector partners to undertake market driven cassava research in the regions of Eastern Africa:-

Mission: Transforming cassava crop into broad-based commercial commodity for sustained food security, poverty alleviation, and income generation through integrated regional production, utilization, marketing and trade.

The mission was arrived at during the priority setting exercise carried out in 2003. The new approach taken by the network is the MARKET-ORIENTED RESEARCH.
