Researchers explain the method and goals of field studies in northern Ghana to help farmers grow high-quality groundnuts with little or no aflatoxin contamination.
Timely harvesting, careful drying, proper sorting and good storage can limit fungal growth and aflatoxin accumulation in groundnuts, leading to a healthier crop.
