Launched in 2011, the "Simple Technology Big Harvest" project is an agricultural cooperation project implemented jointly by China Agricultural University, Tanzanian Government and Sokoine University of Agriculture in Morogoro province, Tanzania.
It focuses on increasing maize production by introducing labor intensive technologies such as rational dense planting.
This project has been selected in the UN publication Good Practices in South-South and Triangular Cooperation for Sustainable Development - Volume 3.
Seemingly ordinary maize has written a wonderful chapter of China-Africa agricultural cooperation.
