Saraguro region, Ecuador: the spectacular vistas impress visitors but also suggest the challenges faced by its inhabitants when they seek communication and transport with markets and urban centers. CIMMYT was one of several partners in the Saguro project, which ran from 1995 to 2008 and was led by Ecuador’s National Institute of Agricultural and Livestock Research (INIAP). Working closely with local people, it helped farmers obtain and use improved seed of barley, wheat, maize, and potatoes, as well as fertilizer and farm credit, and to employ and more sustainable and diversified farming systems that improved profits, nutrition, and natural resource use.

All this achieved dramatic increases in yields and incomes; average incomes of participating households went from USD 1.2 to USD 3.0 per day. Photo credit: Mike Listman/CIMMYT.
