Food loss and waste are estimated to amount to 88 million tonnes per year in EU, corresponding to about 20% of the total food produced.
LOWINFOOD is focusing on prevention and redistribution, the strategies that are considered to be the most preferred ones as they produce the most benefits for the environment, society and the economy.
LOWINFOOD has selected a set of very promising innovations designed to reduce the amount of waste at certain stages in the food value chain. The set of innovations chosen for the LOWINFOOD project ranges from technological solutions to several social and organisational or managerial innovations.
The aim is to validate and improve them in order to provide society with tools to help combat food waste.
