The processing steps cause the following sequential losses: peeling - 8 % of the fresh weight; washing - 5 % of the weight after peeling; fermentation - 12 % of the weight after washing. The final gari contains 12 % moisture (i.e., 88 % dry matter). The market price of dry gari is ₦250 per kilogram of dry matter. Assuming no other losses, calculate the gross revenue the farmer can expect from the processed gari (in naira).
