Banana waste upcycling is spurring on Uganda’s circular economy
Uganda is the world's second largest producer and consumer of bananas. Unfortunately, the fruit contributes to major post-harvest and processing waste, with tons of banana waste ending up in landfill. Now, these waste products are now becoming a vital economic and environmental opportunity in Uganda, which is developing new industries and technologies for banana waste upcycling.
