“…Packing is affected by the fruit characteristics like color, size, shape, and optimal conditions to distribution, as strawberry and tomato trade has very rigorously policies associated to national and international markets. Packaging systems play an essential role in the logistic chain for protecting, labelling, and stacking of valuable or fragile perishable commodities (Sasaki et al, 2021a). Our results were positively affected by this variable showing high food losses in packaging step.…”

Objective: To evaluate food losses (FL) volumes generated by farms in Baja California Peninsula, México, of five agricultural commodities. Design/methodology/approach: Baja California Sur (BCS) state was the study area. Information was gathered from a total of 380 sampled chain actors in asparagus, mango, strawberry, orange and tomato by survey and personal interviews. Tobit technique was applied to identify factors that influence FL percentage. Results: Data shows about 11.8% of asparagus is lost during harvesting and distribution, as well as 8.5% of strawberry, 26% of mango, 17.8% of oranges and 3.5% of tomatoes, representing 29.9% loss rate of marketed yield. Limitations on study/implications: This study did not classify commodities in the last steps of the supply chain. The five commodities used in the current study correspond to the more important agricultural produces in BCS, but given changing market, harvesting time and produce availability did not consider the waste of the supply chain. Findings/conclusions: Commodity, type of transportation and distribution, education, and human resources has been identified as influence factors in the volume of FL. This exploratory study fills the void in information in terms of its geographic scope and food group number, and farm owners willing to manage food losses for the purpose of obtaining bioactive compound. Keywords: Food loss, agrifood, desert agriculture, food security, retail

“…FLW is further implicated by the transportation time (Hammond et al, 2015), along with the transportation distance. The shorter the distance, the lower the risk for FLW during the transportation stage (Sasaki et al, 2021). Additionally, the origin of food products impacts the extent of FLW, because severe quality differences were found in studies (Harou et al, 2013;Ozpolat et al, 2015).…”

Purpose The purpose of this research is to see how purchasing decisions affect food aid transit in humanitarian operations. In this context, the four criteria of transportation time, transportation costs, transportation capacity, and food loss and waste are assessed in relation to local and global procurement procedures, as well as the usage of pre-positioned stock. As a result, this research establishes the correlations between the criteria and gives implications for improvement. Design/Methodology/Approach Within the mono-method quantitative study, a single data collection method is used. We gathered data from respondents working in food aid using a survey, namely an online questionnaire. The data is then examined using the fuzzy analytical hierarchy process (fuzzy AHP), which is a multi-criteria decision-making technique. Findings Based on the four factors analyzed, the fuzzy AHP findings show that the preferred procurement approach, considering the four criteria studied, is local procurement, followed by the use of pre-positioned stock, and global procurement takes last place. According to the results of the cross-comparisons, humanitarian supply chain departments that focus on development aid allocate a relatively comparable percentage of pre-positioned stock and local procurement. However, in disaster relief, local procurement is by far the most favored sourcing method. Research ImplicationsThe result of the analysis shows that due to the time-sensitive nature of disaster relief, where the number of people rescued determines the response time, finding a way to increase the efficiency of humanitarian supply chain through local procurement to prevent food loss and waste and reduce transportation time is necessary. These results provide suggestions and implications for humanitarian organizations and academics. Regarding industrial implications, both development assistance and disaster relief managers and non-governmental organizations can benefit from this paper
