(Business in Cameroon) - The researchers of the Agronomical Research Institute for Development (IRAD) officially presented, on 10 May 2016 in Yaoundé, the four gold medals won during the International Exhibition of Inventions which took place from 13 to 17 April 2016 in Geneva, Switzerland.
IRAD was thus awarded prizes for varieties of cassava, maize, sweet potato and sorghum invented in its laboratories in Cameroon, and which help achieve much higher yields and resist against plant diseases.
“This is the time for me to express the recognition of the Nation to the researchers who search and find”, the Minister of Scientific Research, Madeleine Tchuinté, declared during the presentation of the prizes awarded to Cameroon during the Geneva Exhibition, which saw the participation of 695 exhibitors.
