Synopsis: Added: Aug 09, 2018 9:43 am This contract will utilize a market-driven systems-strengthening approach to improve the competitiveness of horticulture producers and related down-stream businesses and food processors by building their capacities to respond to demand from domestic and international buyers and fully meet their market requirements. Meeting the demands of the market will necessitate adoption of international food quality and safety standards for horticulture crops destined for both international and domestic markets, including food processors, supermarkets, and restaurant chains.

2) Improve post-harvest handling and storage;
3) Increase productivity of small farmers and food processors; and
