Global programs / AflaStop: Storage and Drying for Aflatoxin Prevention
AflaSTOP aims to develop and commercialize technologies for post-harvest storage and drying of staple grains to help prevent and control the incidence of aflatoxin.1 The program is jointly implemented by ACDI/VOCA and its affiliate Agribusiness Systems International under the direction of Meridian Institute.2 The program was funded through a Global Development Alliance between USAID and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF).3 The project works to ensure that businesses operating in Africa are able to provide these devices to smallholder farmers.4

When the program ran, from its start year to the latest document year. A hatched bar means the start is our estimate.
Axis: award years, end from years in documents. The start year comes from award fiscal year; the end is the latest document year, so the program may have run longer.
A few documents to read first. Each opens in the side panel, with the PDF to download.
