Book (stand-alone)Analysis of food loss in the cucumber, zucchini and table grapes value chains in the West Bank, Palestine
Causes and solutions
2023Also available in:
No results found.This study analyses the extent and causes of, and potential solutions to, food loss in three food subsectors that constitute important products in terms of income, food security and nutrition in Palestine; table grapes, cucumber and zucchini. It applies FAO's food loss analysis case study methodology that includes four phases; screening of available information and data; surveying farms, wholesale markets and retailer shops; collecting and analysing samples obtained from farms, wholesale markets and retailer shops; and synthesizing the food loss estimates and solutions. For each of the three food subsectors, recommendations and solutions are proposed to reduce food loss at critical points through policy, technology, and capacity development. At the national level, the study recommends training programmes to improve extension services; regulatory enhancements to the marketability of fresh produce; improving regulation of the handling of agrochemicals; and a national multistakeholder initiative to develop food loss and waste (FLW)-focused reduction measures, policies and strategies. -
