What is one way to reduce post-harvest losses?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Properly drying the produce and storing it safely

Moisture left in grains or produce after harvesting can encourage fungal growth and insect infestation. Proper drying followed by clean, dry and safe storage reduces spoilage and protects both quantity and quality. Leaving grains exposed to rain, as in option B, increases moisture and therefore losses. Exam tip: Remember drying, safe storage and pest control as key measures to reduce post-harvest losses.
