Why this matters
Harvesting is only the beginning.
Produce can lose value after it leaves the farm through poor handling, inadequate drying, contamination, unsuitable storage and limited access to processing or markets.
Improving these stages can help protect food quality and support better outcomes for farmers, buyers and communities. HerVestia’s impact direction is to develop practical post-harvest solutions that fit local crops and market needs.
