Most of the important sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam) traits are sensitive to environmental change. This necessitates evaluating new sweetpotato genotypes in different environments to identify those that are stable. To enhance adoption, the new sweetpotato genotypes should have farmer preferred traits thus the need for farmer involvement during selection. This study was conducted to: evaluate and select promising sweetpotato F1 genotypes with wide and specific adaptation, in association with performance for farmer preferred traits. Twenty-one promising sweetpotato F1 genotypes were evaluated at Namulonge, Serere and Kachwekano with Tanzania and NASPOT 1 as checks. The randomised complete block design with three replications was used. Scientists and farmers evaluated the agronomic performance and quality traits of the genotypes before and at harvest.
