It suggests that identifying and understanding critical loss points in specific supply chains where considerable potential exists for reducing food losses is crucial to deciding on appropriate measures. It also provides some guiding principles for interventions based on the objectives being pursued through food loss and waste reductions, be they in improved economic efficiency, food security and nutrition, or environmental sustainability.
