项目摘要

Waste of highly nutritious fresh produce is a significant problem for developing countries, where 70% of the population can be engaged with the sector. It threatens the growth of primary agriculture industries, the livelihoods of workers, economic progress and food security. Whilst Nigeria is the largest producer of tomatoes in west Africa, 50% of harvested produce perishes, before it can be distributed and sold to consumers. This project will develop an integrated, cost effective and sustainable solution to manage the postharvest value chain where most produce is lost. The project partners, one based in Nigeria and three UK organisations will deploy cutting edge technology from biological and physical sciences and sensor engineering to develop Pick, Store, Buy. The project will focus on three key innovations for the Nigerian tomato sector i) ripening suspension using air purification and the removal of ethylene a key ripening hormone which is produced by plant tissues, ii) printable robust and portable microelectronics to measure real time key environmental factors that control ripening iii) shelf life prediction using gene discovery and real time data streaming algorithms. An extensive project partner communication programme in Nigeria will be critical to raising awareness and implementation of this much needed technology for the fresh produce value chain.

高营养新鲜农产品的浪费是发展中国家的一个重大问题，70%的人口可以从事该部门。它威胁着初级农业产业的增长、工人的生计、经济进步和粮食安全。虽然尼日利亚是西非最大的西红柿生产国，但50%的收获农产品在分发和出售给消费者之前就会腐烂。该项目将开发一个综合的、具有成本效益的和可持续的解决方案，以管理大多数产品损失的收获后价值链。该项目的合作伙伴，一个总部设在尼日利亚和三个英国组织将部署尖端技术，从生物和物理科学和传感器工程开发挑选，存储，购买。该项目将侧重于尼日利亚番茄行业的三项关键创新：一）使用空气净化和去除植物组织产生的关键催熟激素乙烯的催熟悬浮液，二）可打印的耐用便携式微电子设备，用于测量控制催熟的真实的关键环境因素，三）使用基因发现和真实的时间数据流算法进行保质期预测。在尼日利亚开展的一项广泛的项目合作伙伴交流计划对于提高人们对这一新鲜农产品价值链急需技术的认识和实施至关重要。
