Stakeholders engagement in #research is a vital pathway for co-creation of solutions and achieving meaningful impact.
Today, our researcher Sylvere Hategekimana presented findings from his study titled “Challenges and Opportunities of Electrification in the Dairy Value Chain.” The seminar brought together farmers, policymakers, industry representatives, and heads of cooperatives, participating in meaningful discussions about the challenges faced by #Milk Collection Centres #MCCs, particularly in rural areas.
One of the sustainable solutions proposed was the adoption of solar energy as an alternative power source for milk cooling, aimed at improving milk quality and reducing production costs.
