Storage & shelf life
Store nuts and seeds in a cool, dark place in a tightly closed container. Make sure that the container is as airtight as possible so that moisture is kept away from the nuts. You can also freeze nuts and seeds, which will extend their shelf life by several months.

WANZA DJOUMA COULIBALY
FARMER FROM TOUSSIANA, BURKINA FASO
Chemicals lead to diseases. That's why I'm an organic farmer.
"Sometimes our harvest is not enough to cover our own food needs. But you have to look at the positive: as a farmer, you are mostly independent," says Wanza Djouma Coulibaly. She currently works about 10 hectares of land, which is too little, according to her. "I want to become a big mango and cashew producer in the region. And all organic! Growing fruits and nuts organically is better for the environment and our own health. In fact, if I could do any other job, I would become an agronomist!"
