RTBfoods project: Breeding RTB products for end user preferences

The RTBfoods project is implemented with five partner countries: Benin, Cameroon, Ivory Coast, Nigeria and Uganda. It analyzes three common uses of each target root, tuber and banana crops (cassava, yam, sweet potato, plantain and tropical potato). The analysis uses a reverse engineering approach, working backwards from consumers to breeders.

Projet RTBfoods : Améliorer la sélection de variétés de racines, tubercules et bananes à cuire (RTB) pour en faciliter l'adoption par les utilisateurs

Le projet RTBfoods prend place dans cinq pays partenaires : le Bénin, le Cameroun, la Côte d’Ivoire, le Nigeria et l’Ouganda. Il vise à analyser des préparations culinaires différentes (bouilli, pilé, frit,...) et les préférences variétales associées, ainsi que l’aptitude à la transformation (facilité de stockage, d’épluchage, de fermentation, défibrage ou granulation des productions de racines, tubercules et bananes (RTB) (manioc, igname, patate douce, banane à cuire, pomme de terre). L’approche employée tient de l’ingénierie réverse : il s’agit de partir du consommateur pour remonter à l’améliorateur.
