Global food waste is a cross-cutting issue that starts during agricultural production, available food supply, and continues all of the way to the landfill.
Over 30% of food is lost or wasted each year. This number is even more striking, given the large number of hungry people in the world. Wasted food is not only inefficient, it’s a social justice issue – as all the food wasted could be used to serve the food recovery hierarchy and prevent perfectly good food from being wasted.
