Ghana starts campaign to combats aflotoxin problems

The Ghana Standards Authority (GSA) has extended its aflatoxin campaign to sensitize food sellers and consumers in major markets on the harmful impact of aflatoxin contamination on human lives. The education on aflatoxin seeks to create an awareness of grains such as maize and groundnuts which are often susceptible to aflatoxin. The presence of the toxins in food has affected export from Ghana since commodities have been rejected entry into the European Union.
