The complex nature of aflatoxin contamination means that a
holistic and multidisciplinary approach is required to mitigate the
risk of human and animal exposure to this toxin. There is a need to
increase awareness of aflatoxins and support risk mitigation practices
along the entire dairy value chain. Policymakers and development
organizations need to support the dissemination of
information about good agricultural and storage practices and
other simple risk-reduction measures. Further research should
focus on risk mitigation targeted at noug cakes as the primary
source of aflatoxin contamination in the Greater Addis Ababa dairy
value chain
