Causes of Post-Harvest Losses in the value chains in focus:
• Poor post-harvest handling practices.
• Lack of good transportation infrastructure.
• Poor processing & preservation techniques.
• Lack of market access & information asymmetry.
• Climate change.

#PostHarvestLosses
Kenyan farmers are losing 20-40% of their hard earned harvest. Today, The Rallying Cry launches the #KenyaAgriHack in partnership with @CGIARclimate and @CGIARAfrica to help tackle this issue in the cereals, horticulture and dairy value chains.
The @KenyaAgrihack's timing is a strategic and collaborative response to the urgency in the agricultural sector; one that has been exacerbated through floods, droughts and other calamities that cause losses.
