SMART STAPLE CROPS MANAGEMENT: DRY AND STORE
Drying solutions to increase crops value
Each season smallholder farmers have to choose between two bad strategies – either sell the produce quickly, but at a very low price, or store it for private and commercial use in next months, but risk to lose 50% of the product because of insects, pests and mold.
An efficient solution to this challenge is to dry the produce for food security or selling few months after the harvest - when staple crops prices are higher - thus increasing the value of the produce.
Hermetic Safe Storage: Protection Against Humidity and Insects
The most affordable solution that allows keeping dry produce safe are Hermetic Bags. Hermetic Storage protects from mold and insects and doesn't require any pesticides to be used.
ROI period is less than one season. The solution is mostly recommended for maize, soybean, groundnuts.
