Help underway for Kenyan mango farmers
According to standardmedia.co.ke, the deal will also extend to education and health where personnel will be trained to boost their capacities. "Other than helping establish us the mango factory, the Slovakian government has also promised to help us grow and market macadamia,” said governor Alex Tolgos.
The new factory will have the capacity to process five tonnes of mangoes per hour. "This will cut losses the farmers incur because of factors such as lack of value addition and limited market access.”
