Opis

Deliverable 2.2 of the FOLOU project, funded by the European Union, reviews available data on drivers of food loss across agricultural supply chains. Using a systematic literature review and structured data extraction, it identifies key behavioral drivers such as insufficient market knowledge, inadequate post-harvest technologies, lack of training, and improper handling, alongside societal drivers including low market prices, unfair contracts, strict marketing standards, and infrastructure inefficiencies in storage and transportation. The document outlines its methodology, data sources, and analysis to inform stakeholders and support targeted interventions to reduce food loss.
