A brief from the CGIAR’s HarvestPlus biofortification program describes how HarvestPlus has worked with multiple partners in Zambia to catalyze development and delivery of yield-competitive varieties of hybrid maize that are enriched with vitamin A. The first three vitamin A maize (VAM) seed varieties were released in Zambia in 2012, followed by another three in 2015, and five more in 2018. Successive varieties have had improved nutrition and agronomic traits.
