EMERGING FOOD SAFETY ISSUES IN AFRICA & GLOBALLY.

Poor quality and unsafe agricultural and processed food products are some of the most critical issues in Africa’s quest to provide adequate, nutritious and safe food to its growing population. They also negatively affect the continent’s ability to boost consumer health and hinder the realisations and growth of local, regional and international trade – making the continent one of the most vulnerable to hunger, food-borne illnesses and death, trade restrictions, and loss of economic and social potential.
