Abstract
When affordable and effective post-harvest storage solutions are in short supply, populations will often experience vegetable spoilage, loss of income, lack of access to nutritious foods, and large amounts of time spent purchasing vegetables, particularly in rural communities. Devices such as evaporative cooling chambers (ECCs) and clay pot coolers are simple and inexpensive ways to keep vegetables fresh without the use of electricity.
