Challenges
Sudanese farmers are facing technological issues because most of them are not aware of new technologies that can increase their productivity and they lack access to information that would improve their knowledge of planting, cultivation, and irrigation.
Solutions
SudaGarlic aims to use technology to improve garlic seeds and help farmers access regional and international markets. SudaGarlic aims to develop the garlic seeds through plant tissue culture, in addition, to helping small farmers access the market through storing, processing, marketing, distributing, and creating opportunities for industries (food industry, pharmaceutical industries, and cosmetics) for garlic.
