Fresh Food

How much food is wasted in the world because it can not be consumed? The amount is staggering, the world food agency (FAO) found a third of the world’s food is wasted each year, an amount sufficient for food in Africa.

Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) United Nations found that wasted food is coming from wealthy countries and developing countries.

Foods that are failing it is consumed fruits, vegetables and tubers food. Food was removed by the seller and consumer in the trash due to low quality standards and have passed the expiration date.

Foods that are dumped in developing countries because there is an error during the process of poor harvests, poor distribution and poor storage. As a result of food so easily damaged and wasted.

While in developed countries, food is thrown away because consumers often buy in large quantities or exceeds the requirements. The seller and the consumer will also discard food that the packaging is damaged even though just a little.

If the packaging is damaged little or no standards, consumers or sellers in developed countries would immediately throw it away.

Researchers from the Swedish Institute for Food and Biotechnology (SIK) for the Save the Food! conducted a study to generate some important discoveries, as quoted from FAO.org:

Developed and developing countries about throwing food in the same amount respectively 670 and 630 million tons.

Every year, junk food from rich countries as much as 222 million tons, the amount is similar to food production in sub-Saharan African countries amounting to 230 million tons.

The most frequent types of wasted food is fruit, vegetables and tubers food.

The amount of food is lost or wasted every year the equivalent of more than half the cereal crop in the world (2.3 billion tonnes in 2009/2010).

Waste of food by consumers in Europe and North America about 95-115 kg per year, whereas in sub-Saharan African countries, South and Southeast Asia about 6-11 kg per year.

Unknown number of food production per capita for people in rich countries about 900 kg per year, this number is almost double compared to production in poor countries is around 460 kg per year.

Solution given by the researchers is to reduce dependence on the retailer that can help reduce wasted food scraps and suggesting to sell agricultural products directly to consumers.

As for developing countries the key lies in strengthening the food supply chain, encourage investment in infrastructure and transportation as well as increased interest in processing, storage and packaging.

Consumers are also asked to change the shoping pattern not to buy food exceeds his needs, so do not throw food over the limit due to expiration.
