"We have read, with interest, an article on the export of
groundnuts (issue 2/1999). The article on aflatoxins was of a high
technical standard. It has made us aware of an imperative need for
national organizations dealing with product standards and quality
control. Lack of infrastructure is the great rock on which least
developed countries come to grief. But awareness of a problem is
the first step in resolving it. There is no need to tell you of the
need for us to have access to your enriching documentation. A long
journey begins with the first step - being informed is the first
step to begin growing."
