    Smallholders and traders are key stakeholders in fruit and vegetable supply chains supplying local mass markets across South Asian countries. Training these stakeholders and introducing simple technical innovations into these supply chains can dramatically improve the quality and shelf-life of fresh produce and reduce losses, thereby generating economic benefits for producers, supply chain stakeholders and consumers as well as improving nutrition. Consequently, greater support is called for to a ddress the challenges faced in traditional supply chains. This policy brief aims to provide information on applying the principles of post-harvest management of fruit and vegetable supply chains for quality and safety assurance handling practice along with simple technologies were piloted with stakeholders in traditional fruits and vegetables in South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) Countries.

    Bangladesh ranks third in the world in inland capture fisheries production and fourth in aquaculture production, accounting for a total production of 4 38 tonnes in 2018 19 It has been reported that small scale fisheries in Bangladesh suffer from serious post harvest fish loss ( every year, mainly as a result of the lack of technical knowledge of those involved in the different stages, from harvest to retail distribution Overall, fish losses can be broadly grouped into two categories qualitative loss and quantitative loss Qualitative PHFLs are caused by biochemical and microbiological spoilage that occur in fish after death Quantitative losses, namely the reduction in quantity and price of harvested fish, occur in fish for various reasons In addition, market force losses are caused by price fluctuation during excess supply, among other reasons As a result of these losses, fish operators along the supply chain ( processors, traders, and other stakeholders involved in ancillary operations) lose potential income In addition, less fish is available to consumers, and they are supplied with low quality fish and fish products Whether quantitative, qualitative or market loss, fish loss is a threat to food and nutritional security, livelihoods, and the sustainable management of fisheries resources.
