Ungefär en tredjedel av de livsmedel som produceras i världen förloras eller slösas bort. Livsmedelsslöseriet innebär en stor förlust av andra resurser som mark, vatten, energi och arbetskraft.

Global food losses and food waste The study highlights the losses occurring along the entire food chain, and makes assessments of their magnitude. Further, it identifies causes of food losses and possible ways of preventing them. The results of the study suggest that roughly one-third of food produced for human consumption is lost or wasted globally, which amounts to about 1.3 billion tons per year. This inevitably also means that huge amounts of the resources used in food production are used in vain, and that the greenhouse gas emissions caused by production of food that gets lost or wasted are also emissions in vain.

Preparatory study on food waste across EU 27 Addressing a lack of information about food waste in Europe. Food waste is composed of raw or cooked food materials and includes food loss before, during or after meal preparation in the household, as well as food discarded in the process of manufacturing, distribution, retail and food service activities. It comprises materials such as vegetable peelings, meat trimmings, and spoiled or excess ingredients or prepared food as well as bones, carcasses and organs.
