Kenya – Kenya can’t regulate its way out of aflatoxin menace (Food World)

May 15, 2021


East African Standard published an article stating that enforcement of food safety regulations is necessary but insufficient to solve this problem. Aflatoxin contamination must be addressed at its root, during production, and on-farm storage. Research by IFPRI and others points to some solutions including education, incentivizing farmers, and removing the middleman. Educating farmers about how to prevent aflatoxin leads to better practices, which can also improve the quality of grain. (Reach 282K) Republished in Food World
