Abstract/Description
Plastic crates drastically reduce food loss while stored and/ or transported. The crates should replace the traditional raffia baskets that lead to high post-harvest losses during storage and transportation. The adoption rate is currently low because the price is high, and/or the benefits of using plastic crates must be better understood. The majority of plastic crates are on a rental basis.
