End of day 1. Participants get familiar with "the witch" in the field accompanied by the @BiovIntCIAT_eng team. Back in the lab they learn about phenotyping #fallarmyworm with instructors from @irri

With the rapid transboundary spread of #cassava witches' broom disease, understanding its biology is key to implementing better preemptive mgmt strategies, from #earlydetection & production of #cleanseed, to ID resistant varieties.
