#DYK Around a third of the global food production is currently lost or wasted along the food chain, with fruit and vegetable production and processing contributing significantly to agri-food waste generation? Register for our webinar 'Finding Value in Food Waste: transforming losses into opportunities' to find out more. Wednesday 11 December, 12.00-12.40pm. Please join us to hear Dr Christine Bösch discuss how agri-food waste not only negatively impacts the environment and economy, it is also an undervalued source for bulk material and bioactive compounds. Many concepts are being developed to effectively and sustainably utilise these and thereby upcycle agri-food waste. Christine will share the limitations but also huge opportunities for finding value in food waste. Our webinars are free and open to all. Please register on Eventbrite: https://lnkd.in/e2FMA_hg
Registration is now open for our December webinar. Join us to hear Dr Christine Bösch deliver their talk on 'Finding Value in Food Waste: transforming losses into opportunities'. Around a third of the global food production is currently lost or wasted along the food chain, with fruit and vegetable production and processing contributing significantly to agri-food waste generation. Not only does #AgriFood waste negatively impact environment and economy, it is also an undervalued source for bulk material and bioactive compounds. Many concepts are being developed to effectively and sustainably utilise these and thereby upcycle agri-food waste. Given the location of certain waste streams, seasonality and volume, there are limitations but also huge opportunities. This presentation will provide an overview on the topic with examples from recovery of phytochemicals and potential applications. The webinar is free and open to all.
