1 According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) commissioned study "Global Food Losses and Food Waste" roughly one third or 1.3 billion tons of the food produced in the world for human consumption every year gets lost or wasted: Industrialized and developing countries dissipate roughly the same quantities of food, respectively 70 and 30 million tones; Every year, consumers in rich countries waste almost as much food (222 million tons) as the entire net food production of sub Saharan Africa (230 million tons); Fruits and vegetables, plus roots and tubers have the highest loss and wastage rates of any food; The amount of food lost or wasted every year is equivalent to more than half of the world's annual cereals crop (2.3 billion tonnes in 2009/2010). FAO, within its new Food Loss Reduction Strategy, has started the global initiative on food loss and waste reduction entitled SAVE FOOD that includes actions such as: detailed food loss assessments and solution finding; awareness creation on food losses and waste, information dissemination, and regional Save Food congresses. SAVE FOOD is a joint campaign in partnership with Interpack/ Messe Düsseldorf (Germany) to fight global food losses and waste. Save Food aims at networking stakeholders in industry, politics and research, encouraging dialogue and helping to develop solutions along the food value chain. FAO welcomes more partners to join the Save Food Initiative ( food.org) and support its programme. We invite you to fill in the Survey on current research and/ or activities on food losses and/ or waste world wide. The survey has 12 questions. The resulting database will support a global perspective on food loss and waste re search and activities and provide participants with the possibility of having on line access to the analysis of the results in order to further develop their research and/ or activities. Please feel free to share the public link with colleagues or other interested parties.
