🍅🌍 From Loss to Opportunity: A Lesson in Tomato Farming 🌍🍅 Every season, countless smallholder farmers around the world work hard to grow tomatoes. Yet when markets are flooded, prices collapse, and much of the harvest goes to waste. This is not just a loss of income—it is a loss of hope, energy, and food security. But there is a way forward. By turning surplus tomatoes into tomato paste, farmers can extend shelf life, reduce waste, and create a valuable product for both home use and the market. A friend in Afghanistan has shared a simple, practical method that farmers anywhere in the world can use. It requires very little equipment and transforms what could have been a loss into new opportunities. ▶️ Watch the tutorial here: Together, let’s embrace value addition in agriculture. Because every tomato saved is a farmer empowered, and every small innovation is a step toward ending post-harvest losses. 🌱 #FarmersFirst #TomatoFarming #AgriBusiness #ValueAddition #FoodSecurity
