The International Potato Center (CIP) is a global, non-profit research organization that works to improve food security, nutrition, and incomes in developing countries through research and innovation in root and tuber crops—primarily potatoes and sweet potatoes.
CIP’s focus areas encompass a range of strategic priorities aimed at improving agricultural systems and livelihoods. These include crop improvement through the development of climate-resilient, high-yielding, and disease-resistant varieties of potatoes and sweet potatoes; sustainable farming by promoting environmentally friendly and resource-efficient agricultural practices; and nutrition and food systems, particularly through the use of biofortified crops. CIP also works to strengthen value chains and market access by supporting smallholder farmers in building inclusive and profitable value chains, while enhancing climate resilience by helping farming systems adapt to the impacts of climate change.
