Grain Storage Public-Private Partnerships
Global attention was focused on food price volatility in the aftermath of the global financial crisis. Governments initiated policy measures to ensure food security of populations, which included increasing food reserves as well as measures to reduce food wastage, including wastage due to poor storage and handling. One solution identified by countries running large food security programs was to introduce public-private partnerships (PPPs) in food storage, especially for storage of grain. The positive impacts of PPPs in this sector could be huge given the inefficiencies in grain storage and the large proportion of post-harvest wastage especially in the handling and storage of grain in developing countries.
