Kenya is one of the main producers of tomato within Africa south of the Sahara, with an estimated market value of USD 237 million as of 2012, most of which was produced for the national market (Sibomana et al., 2016). Within Laikipia, the total value of tomato production was estimated as 148.5 million KSh in 2014 (Ministry of Agriculture). Due to their softness and perishability, tomatoes have significant potential for both quality and quantity losses postharvest.
