The crop is increasing in importance as adverse climate changes limit crop production in many areas. Understanding the genetic diversity of germplasm of crop species is of importance for its rational management and use. Identification of the sweet potato landraces is paramount in addressing food security not only in the study region but elsewhere in the country. Morphological characterization of the accessions facilitates the identification of duplicates and unique traits which is important in the future improvement of the crop having the desired characteristics. The study aimed at identifying the factors that farmers consider in selecting the sweet potato variety to plant in East Kamagak location of Rachuonyo District, Homabay County. The experiment started with survey and germplasm collection aided by use of questionnaire. The accessions were used for morphological characterization, The results showed that 30% 0f the farmers selected sweet potato to plant based on taste compared to 24% farmers who preferred high yielding varieties.

In Africa, it is grown in small plots by poorer farmers. Production of the crop is extremely low in Kenya as compared to other African countries due to the existence of common insect pests. Sweet potato weevil (Cylas spp.) is known as the biggest pit fall for production and productivity of the crop in the country. This study sought to determine the opinion of sweet potato farmers concerning sweet potato resistance to Cylas spp. and determine control strategies employed by sweet potato farmers in managing the pest. The study also sought to determine the sweet potato production constraints faced by the farmers in Homa Bay County, Kenya. The study was conducted using a Participatory Rural Appraisal approach in which 269 farmers in the County were interviewed on the sweet potato varieties with field resistance to Cylas spp., the crops’ production constraints (with emphasis on damage by Cylas spp.) and farmers’ control strategies in regard to the weevil.
