| Popis: | The purpose of this paper is to analyse the distribution of food loss and food waste of the main food categories related to the food supply chain respectively cereals, roots and tubers, oilseeds and pulses, fruits and vegetables, meat, fish and seafood and milk, in Europe including Russia, North America and Oceania, Industrialized Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa, North Africa, West and Central Asia and South and Southeast Asia. An estimated 30 % of the food produced globally for human sustenance is lost or squandered along the food supply chain. In the meantime, the global population is estimated to reach 9.1 billion by 2050, necessitating a 70% increase in food availability. A significant portion of this growth will occur in developing countries, where growing urban populations persist to create complex and lengthy food supply chains involving numerous actors, facing challenges for the delivery of secure, nutrient-rich, high-quality food. |
