A Nigerian University Built a Drone and Cold Store to Cut Post-Harvest Losses
The Federal University of Petroleum Resources, Effurun, filed 21 patents and invention disclosures in a single academic year. Its vice-chancellor, Ezekiel Oghenyerhovwo Agbalagba, says two of the newest are ready for an industry partner: a precision-agriculture drone and a farm cold-storage unit, and he is asking investors to help take them from the university workshop to the field.
