0 per cent of all food is lost in developing countries on the way to the consumer, through inadequate storage, packaging and poor transport and refrigeration. The region worst affected is Saharan Africa.
Now the BMELV is working with the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations to invest in agriculture in developing countries, funding projects to enhance food security.
The BMELV added that it is also adding scientific support to developing countries to help reduce food losses.
