“…However, worldwide food waste happens at each of the stages in supply chain management, namely within agricultural production, post-harvest handling and storage, processing, distribution and final consumption. Food waste occurs across the supply chain, including all entitiesfarms, manufacturers, retailers, consumer-facing business like restaurants or catering services as well as individual consumers (Ocicka, Raźniewska, 2018). In order to reach this ambitious goal, effective prevention measures have to be implemented.…”

“…by non-profit organizations which operate globally (De Boeck et al, 2017). Undoubtedly, food waste management needs system thinking and responsible participation of all parties, particularly NGOs, public authorities, business operators as well as individuals, based on common goals and collaborative actions (Ocicka and Raźniewska, 2018). The role of supplier relationship management is prominent and could consider all of these stages.…”

According to different rapports, one of the most important challenges of nowadays is food security and waste problem. These are also the Sustainable Development Goals till 2030 such as "Zero Hunger", "Responsible Production and Consumption". Strategic and operational interventions can be prioritised across national, regional or industry level in food supply chains. The aim of this article is to present the possibility of using supplier relationship management in securing food and reducing waste. The considerations are based on the following scientific methods: literature analysis, a survey performed using Computer Assisted Telephone Interview among Polish organic distributors. In the article, the role of supplier relationship management in reassuring sustainable business was underlined. As a result, the portfolio of tools and advices for practical use, mostly by purchasing and procurement departments, in food securing and reducing waste was presented. The most important ones are as follows: traceability, measuring performance, evaluations and collaborative actions.

“…8 Singapore has a diverse and multi-ethnic demographic; food wastes with varying levels of heterogeneity are generated throughout the food supply chain, from initial production/import down to final household consumption. 3,19 In fact, the food waste at a single dining hall can be composed of several types of noodles, rice and rice products, soy-based ingredients, cooked seafood and processed seafood products, and even barbequed meats, all with varying salt and spice content. Bioconversion efficiency and larval growth vary with diverse rearing substrates.…”

BACKGROUNDThe black soldier fly (BSF) offers a potential solution to address the ongoing depletion of food/feed source, yet selecting effective rearing substrates remains a major hurdle in BSF farming. In an urban city, like Singapore, much of the current practices are based on rearing BSF on homogeneous waste streams (e.g., spent brewery grains, okara, etc.) because heterogeneous food wastes (e.g., mixed kitchen/canteen waste, surplus cooked food, etc.) present several operational challenges with respect to standardizing development, nutritional content, and harvesting.RESULTSIn this study, we compared two genetic strains (wild type and laboratory‐adapted line) of BSF larvae in a bioconversion experiment with diverse types of food waste (homogeneous/heterogeneous; plant/meat) and quantified the phenotypic plasticity. Our results demonstrate the different plasticity in bioconversion performance, larval growth and larval nutrition between the two BSF lines. This difference may be attributed to the selective breeding the laboratory‐adapted line has experienced. Notably, larval lipid content displayed little to no genetic variation for plasticity compared with larval protein and carbohydrate content. Despite variation in larval development, heterogeneous food wastes can produce better performance in bioconversion, larval growth, and larval nutrient content as compared to homogeneous food waste. All‐meat diets result in high larvae mortality, but larval survival could be rescued by mixing meat with plant‐based food wastes.CONCLUSIONOverall, we suggest using mixed meals for BSF larvae feeding. While targeted breeding may be a promising strategy for the BSF industry, it is important to note that selection effects on plasticity in larval nutrition should be carefully considered.This article is protected by copyright.

“…The problem of food waste is considered complicated throughout the supply chain. The food supply chain can be defined as a series of interactions between producers and customers, associated with various food processing and distribution firms (Ocicka and Raźniewska, 2018). In 2020, the food waste in Malaysia increase drastically by 100% and with this increase, the planning to make Malaysia a garbage-free country dump into a failure.…”

Malaysia still produces an estimated around 37,890 tonnes of waste per day and 16,687 tonnes of it is food waste in 2019. This figure gives the impression that Malaysians are still not trying to reduce waste as higher amount of waste can reflect the quantity purchased by Malaysians. This situation occurs because it has become a habit to purchase items that cannot be recycled or reused without feeling bad for the environment. The aims of this paper are to highlight the issues and strategies in food waste reduction in Malaysia. Secondary data are collected regarding "food waste", "waste management" and "environment friendly food purchasing" scope matters. There are several categories of food waste in Malaysia, food losses from production in the food supply chain, unavoidable, and avoidable food waste. Food waste does affect the environment through the greenhouse gas emissions, climate change, land occupation footprint and water footprint. The strategies to overcome the problem of food waste disposals in Malaysia are through composting, recycling, and anaerobic digestion treatment. Green purchasing is an influential driver in almost all the beginning movement of sustainability in the supply chain, which also included food processing until the disposal phase.
