Lagos, PLAN design strategy to curb agric waste

Considering the high volume of postharvest loss from agric produce as a result of non existence of technologies that can preserve fruits, vegetables, foods and crops for required micro-nutrients and for economic growth, Lagos State Government Ministry of Agriculture in conjunction with the Union of Perishable Farm Produce Traders of Lagos State, Postharvest Loss Alliance for Nutrition (PLAN), Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition (GAIN) have commenced awareness on capacity building and public/market sensitisation on produce vehicle/crate projects to prevent further postharvest loss.
