| dc.description | Consuming unsafe food carries risks that can have a major detrimental effect on trade, development, economic progress and health. It creates a vicious cycle of disease and malnutrition, particularly affecting infants, young children, as well as the elderly. In addition to posing serious health risks to consumers, food-borne diseases often cause substantial economic losses. As a result, identifying ways to improve the food systems in the country to reduce risks and protect consumers has become urgent. Areas of intervention include (but are not limited to) the meat industry, food processors, as well as small- and medium-sized enterprises. Despite the important role the meat industry plays in the agricultural economy in Ghana, it faces profound challenges, such as the safe production, processing and marketing of meat and meat products. | |
