Research 410: Food Loss and Waste from Farming, Fishing and Aquaculture in Ireland Highlights

In this video Dr Jennifer Attard gives a synopsis of EPA Research Report 410: Food Loss and Waste from Farming, Fishing and Aquaculture in Ireland.

Project abstract: Food waste in Ireland has been estimated at 1.1 million tonnes per year, but this excluded farming, fishing and aquaculture (i.e. primary production), as there were no data on these sectors. This research has quantified and understood food waste in primary production and is a starting point in identifying areas that need addressing. The project has compiled various options for solutions available to tackle the specific food waste issues occurring in Ireland.
