Speaking yesterday at the workshop in Bauchi with the theme; ‘Adoption of Improved Production Integrated Pest and Disease Management (IPM) and Post Harvest Handling Techniques’, the director, Federal Department of Agriculture, Abdullahi Abubakar, said the training would help in reducing post-harvest losses.
