Technical tips to manage quality and reduce food losses in mango value chains – Unloading & handling

Описание: Food losses refer to the decrease in the quantity or quality of food resulting from decisions and actions by food suppliers in the supply chain, excluding retail, food service providers and consumers. Food losses predominate in developing countries.

Fresh fruits and vegetables are highly perishable and sustain high levels of food losses that translate into a substantial economic loss for small producers.

Reducing food losses contributes to improving food security, increasing the efficiency of land and water use and creating financial efficiencies across the food system.

Good pre- and post-harvest practice is crucial to maintaining the quality of fresh produce and reducing food losses.

This video provides technical tips on good unloading and handling practices in markets that can be applied by smallholders to maintain the quality and reduce losses of their mangoes.
