Implemented in three phases from 2001 to 2010, INCOPA was
hosted by the International Potato Center (CIP) and was part of
the Papa Andina Regional Initiative. It received generous financial
support from the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation
(SDC). Over time, it engaged the participation of more than 20
private firms, public agencies, and NGOs, and of some 2,500
smallholder potato-growing families in the Peruvian highlands.
