Tackling postharvest losses through a systems approach

One third of crops harvested globally, are lost due to poor post-harvest handling and storage. Even though, the topic has been on the table of governments, local and international development organisations for a while, the situation has not improved significantly. For better post-harvest handling, farmers need two things: Know-how as well as the right technologies for the different steps of post-harvest management. To assure access to information and technologies, public sector, entrepreneurs and civil society need to join hands. We think that only this way we can reach sustainability and scale.
