This collection highlights contributions shared as part of the Value-Added Foods Month hosted in September 2018 by USAID’s Office of Market and Partnership Innovations. The term “value-added foods” includes crops or foods that have been enhanced through a variety of improvements, including processing, fortification, increased safety or nutrition, better packaging or extended storage. The benefits of value-added foods include providing better nutrition to children and mothers; greater income for producers; access to new markets; and new processes to improve packaging and storage to reduce waste and ensure greater food safety.
