Simply Measuring - Quantifying Food Loss & Waste

The UNECE measuring methodology aims at quantifying food loss and waste at several key points of the fresh produce supply chain. The methodology builds on existing methodologies and newly developed elements based on studies already carried out. A simple methodology can foster the continuous recording of losses along the supply chain, collect most valuable data on production, sales and losses, and thus encourage the repurposing and redistribution of lost food to find viable and sustainable solutions to the food and environmental challenges of today.
