Context and challenges<\/h2>\n

In Afghanistan, the mountain regions are cold deserts where temperatures frequently fall below -10\u00b0C in winter.\u00a0 The isolation of communities in these regions and the absence of reliable energy sources mean that the sale of farm produce is hindered by technical and economic constraints.\u00a0 In addition, the lack of efficient storage facilities leads most producers to sell their harvests directly from the field at a lower price than they could obtain in winter when demand is higher.\u00a0 Moreover, they suffer considerable losses due to frost in the winter season.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/geres-test.preprod-securite-bastille2.ovh\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/geres.nos-actions.nos-projets.afghanistan.celliers-bioclimatiques-article.jpg” _builder_version=”3.25.3″ custom_margin=”||39px|||”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.0.6″ header_font=”||||||||” header_2_font=”||||||||” header_2_line_height=”1.3em” custom_padding=”0px|0px||0px||” custom_padding_tablet=”|0px||0px” custom_padding_phone=”” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|tablet”]<\/p>\n

Objectives and solutions<\/h2>\n

With this in mind, Geres launched a programme in 2003 designed to improve food preservation by installing bioclimatic storage facilities.<\/p>\n

Statistics show that producers with inadequate equipment\u00a0lose 80% of their stored crops. The pilot-project to disseminate bioclimatic storerooms has demonstrated its value as the proposed equipment and methods can completely eliminate losses of potatoes and apples.\u00a0Beneficiary families have also been able to generate new income\u00a0through the selling, which benefit from a capital gain in winter. A kilo of potatoes selling for $0.20 at harvest time could be sold for more than $0.40 at the height of winter.<\/p>\n
