PNG Women in Agriculture Development Foundation, in partnership with Black Stump Technologies, is piloting the Erap Mama’s Market Depot – a solar-powered cold storage and distribution hub serving over 250 women farmers. Powered by the Black Stump Solarator, the facility includes solar refrigeration and ice-making units to preserve produce quality, reduce post-harvest losses, and boost market value. This initiative empowers women as equal partners in agriculture, strengthens food security, and promotes clean energy adoption in Papa New Guinea’s agri-sector.
