Despite ample food production, global hunger remains a pressing issue. Nearly one-third of all food produced each year is wasted or lost before consumption. This wastage amounts to approximately 1.3 billion tons per year, with a value of around 1 trillion dollars. If properly managed, the food that goes to waste could feed two billion people. Food wastage contributes to the persistence of hunger in various regions. Efforts to address hunger must involve tackling the problem of food wastage and improving access to food for all.
