Project Abstract

<p> This research paper explores the economics of food waste and its implications for food security. Food waste is a significant global issue that not only has economic consequences but also impacts food availability, affordability, and access. The paper examines the causes and drivers of food waste, analyzes its economic implications at various stages of the food supply chain, and discusses potential solutions to reduce food waste and improve food security. By understanding the economic dimensions of food waste, policymakers, researchers, and stakeholders can develop effective strategies to address this pressing issue and ensure a more sustainable and secure food system <br></p>
