    The UPSCALE project aims to achieve food security in sub-Saharan Africa by using nature-based solutions inspired by push-pull technology to close the yield gap in smallholder agriculture. Push-pull technology (PPT) was developed at the International Centre of Insect Physiology and Ecology (icipe) in Kenya in 1997. It is a mixed cropping strategy that diversifies conventional cereal cultivation ...

    The results will be used in WP5 and 8 to identify target regions for push-pull upscaling and dissemination using participative transdisciplinary exchange in WP1. Task 7.2 is led by Maseno University (MU) will seek to increase value chain integration through transdisciplinary multi-actor involvement in knowledge exchange, infrastructure and policy.
  9. Upscaling The Benefits Of Push-Pull Technology For Sustainable Agriculture Intensification In East Africa UPSCALE is a H2020 Research & Innovation project worth €7.66 million, which started in November 2020 and lasts for 5 years. The project aims to take key steps to realize the transformative potential of push-pull technology by expanding
