Sustainably managing aflatoxins in maize using systems approach in Uganda

The purpose of this PPG is to develop a project proposal to establish a systems approach to manage aflatoxins in maize in Uganda. A systems approach integrates at least two independent measures to manage SPS issues. Specifically, the PPG would determine the potential components of a systems approach for monitoring, testing, inspecting and certifying maize, and evaluating the feasibility of the public and private sectors applying such a system. The PPG would then develop into a project proposal for funding by the STDF or other donors.
