Lets preserve food for a better tomorrow

in #food6 years ago (edited)

The world losses or wastes roughly one third of the food produced for human consumption every year, approximately 1.3 billion tones gets lost or wasted according to FAO statistics. What makes it worse is that the food loss and waste is occurring at a time of increasing food prices and worsening food insecurity for many.

In Africa and developing countries, food loss occurs at post-harvest and processing levels, while in industrialized countries, more than 40% of the food losses occur at retail and consumer levels. Fruits and vegetables, plus root and tubers have the highest wastage rates of any food

This loss is mainly caused by inefficiencies in the use and allocation of resources along the food supply chain, like poor infrastructure and logistics, lack of technology, insufficient skills, and knowledge and management capacity of supply chain actors, as well as poor access to markets. In addition, natural disasters, weather and climatic conditions, negative economic trends might play a role too.
