Food Waste

Food is one of the most essential resources for human survival, yet an astonishing amount of it is wasted every day. According to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), roughly one-third of all food produced globally—around 1.3 billion tons—ends up as waste each year. Food waste occurs at every stage of the supply chain, from production and distribution to retail and consumption. Let us explore various ways to reduce food waste on www.foodpulse.net .
