Food waste refers to the food that is discarded, uneaten, or spoiled at any point in the food supply chain. This includes food that is wasted during production, processing, distribution, and consumption. Food waste is a major environmental, economic, and social problem, as it contributes to greenhouse gas emissions, wastes valuable resources, and exacerbates food insecurity. Efforts to reduce food waste include increasing public awareness, improving food storage and preservation practices, and reducing overproduction in the food industry.
