## Lagos produce sellers report losses from spoilage and weak storage

Traders and consumers in Lagos told NAN that heat, poor storage and transport conditions were causing fruit and vegetable losses. One trader said roughly two to three kilograms of carrots from a 10-kilogram bag could spoil, while produce could deteriorate within days. The report documents market testimony, not a measured statewide loss estimate.
