Food Waste: An Opportunity

To Improve Resource Use


Department of Agriculture


About one-fifth of all food produced for hu-
man consumption is lost annually in the
United States.

In the world context of rising population, un-
certain weather, and concern with the availa-
bility of resources, every opportunity should
be taken to improve food system management
in this country.

More attention should be directed at the
causes of food waste, new management tech-
nology for reducing loss, and improvement of
consumer understanding.
