EAC Secretariathttps://doi.org/10.60682/g497-8g16Summary of findingsAflatoxin contamination poses a serious threat to human and animal health, and to the economies of the EAC Partner States. In February 2018, the 36th Council of Ministers approved the EAC Aflatoxin Prevention and Control Strategy and Action Plan (2017-2022). The Council further directed Partner States to mainstream EAC Aflatoxin prevention and control strategy priorities in their national budgets and investment plans. The Council of Ministers also approved nine sets of policy briefs on aflatoxin management. They contain recommendations on interventions required to mitigate impacts and effects of aflatoxin along the food and feed value chains. Development and implementation of the Strategy has been funded by USAID Kenya and East and technically supported by the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) and the Partnership for Aflatoxin Prevention and Control in Africa (PACA).enOther
