Article Synopsis
- * This study proposes that sustainable adoption of improved bean varieties can occur through a coordinated effort involving private sector-led multi-stakeholder platforms that connect seed production to grain markets.
- * Research indicates that membership in these platforms, along with factors like contractual agreements and extension services, significantly boosts the supply of certified common bean seeds, highlighting the need for supportive policies.
Bush bean ( L.) production is undermined by soil degradation and low biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) capacity. This study evaluated the effect of black soldier fly frass fertilizer (BSFFF) on bush bean growth, yield, nutrient uptake, BNF, and profitability, in comparison with commercial organic fertilizer (Phymyx, Phytomedia International Ltd.

This study aimed to determine phenotypic traits associated with anthracnose resistance for future use in breeding programmes. Twenty-two common bean varieties (CBVs) were selected basing on susceptibility to anthracnose, advanced breeding lines, improved variety resembling advanced breeding lines and the farmer variety widely grown in Tanzania.
