Challenges

Managing aflatoxin contamination in chilies sourced from Dharwad poses significant challenges throughout the supply chain 

  • Ensuring traceability from farm to processing is crucial to identify points where aflatoxin contamination could occur. MTR needs to closely monitor the journey of chilies from the farmer producer organizations (FPOs) in Dharwad to processing facilities. 
  • Implementing stringent quality control measures during picking, drying, handling, and transportation stages is essential. This includes proper drying techniques, sorting, and grading to minimize aflatoxin levels. 
  • Educating and supporting local farmers on best practices for chili cultivation can mitigate aflatoxin risks. This includes optimal drying methods, storage conditions, and pest management practices. 
  • Regular testing of chili batches for aflatoxin levels is necessary to ensure compliance with safety standards. Quick detection and intervention are critical to prevent contaminated batches from entering the supply chain. 
  • Adhering to local and international regulations on aflatoxin levels in food products is mandatory. MTR must stay updated on regulatory requirements and ensure their sourcing and processing practices meet these standards.
