The National Tomato Growers, Processors and Marketers Association of Nigeria (NATPAN) requests the Federal Government to reduce post-harvest losses of the produce.

The chairman of NATPAN, Rabiu Zuntu stated on Tuesday that the government inference will cut down the post-harvest losses.

“Most farmers cannot afford loans for this equipment to aid reduction of post-harvest losses because they are smallholder farmers. The government can help tomato farmers reduce post-harvest losses by coming to their aid with interventions.”

“With the use of plastic crates for the transportation of tomatoes from one part of Nigeria to the other, the rate of post-harvest losses will be reduced.”
