"When I opened The Sweet Potato, I wanted to support Ontario's thriving local food system and connect people to their food in important ways. In ways that would have them thinking about the effects small choices around the dining table would make, not only to their health and the health of their loved ones, but to the families that grow our food, to the environment and to the future, said Digs Dorfman, founder and CEO of the Toronto-based independent grocer. Its amazing to see how this vision has resonated not just with our customers, but as a booming business across Canada.

Amid increasing demand and substantial year-over-year growth, The Sweet Potato released its plans for a second location, already under construction in Leaside. Slated to open in March 2023 on Bayview Avenue, just south of Eglinton Avenue E, the new 16,000-square-foot store promises to be a fun, lighthearted and customer-focused shopping experience similar to its flagship location in The Junction.

Whether youre eating to avoid food allergies, are trying to eat more plant-based foods or are addressing other health concerns, The Sweet Potato has gone above and beyond to have something for everyone,said Dorfman.

To stand out in a busy marketplace, The Sweet Potatos ethically driven business is staying true to its grass roots, prioritizing sustainability and traceability on the shelf, down to the specific farm or geographic region that the food comes from.

According to Dorfman, the future of food is local, organic and innovative: Its about independent farms, environmentally sustainable agriculture, groundbreaking proteins and connecting people with the foods they eat in meaningful ways. The future of food belongs to all of us, not just those who can afford it.

Global Biocontrol Market

Global Biocontrol Market

Dublin, Nov. 17, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Biocontrol Market by Type (Biopesticides and Semiochemicals), Source (Microbials, Biochemicals, and Macrobials), Mode of Application, Crop Type, and Region (North America, Europe, APAC, South America, Rest of the World) - Global Forecast to 2027" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global biocontrol market is estimated to be valued at USD 6.6 Billion in 2022 and is projected to reach USD 13.7 Billion by 2027, recording a CAGR of 15.8%

Biocontrol crop protection solutions consist of naturally occurring substances, including biochemicals (semiochemicals, plant extracts, organic acids), microorganisms (microbial biocontrols), and macrobials (beneficial insects) that control pests and support plant growth. Conventional chemical pesticides which have a larger market share at present in the crop protection market, have greater efficiency but are harmful to human and environmental health.

Moreover, they have also created a rise in pest resistance. Thus, policy makers across the globe are regulating and banning chemical-based active ingredients, especially in the North American and European regions. This is driving the biocontrol market. Consumer awareness and the rise in demand for organic food are also the major factors that support the rise of the market in coming times.

Europe is projected to witness the growth of 16.5% during the forecast period making it the fastest-growing market.

The biocontrol market in Europe is growing at a CAGR of 16.5%. The European market has stringent import regulations and strictly monitors residue issues in food items. The market has a high organic food demand which is catered by domestic and international markets. The EU is also undertaking measures that are inclined towards food safety and environmental sustainability. For example, its Farm to Fork Strategy which is aimed to make food systems fair, healthy, and environment friendly.

Story continues

The European Commission had suggested a 50% reduction in the usage of chemical pesticides by 2030 in June 2022. The demand for organic food and consequently safe pesticides derived from nature is being driven by all these policies and activities. Therefore, Europe is a lucrative market for biocontrol solutions and is projected to grow at the fastest rate in the coming times.

Biopesticides segment is projected to grow at a CAGR of 15.9% during the forecast period.

Biopesticides are seen as a strong alternative to chemical pesticides. Due to rising regulations on chemical pesticides by regulatory bodies, biopesticides are gaining popularity in the market and replacing many chemical based pesticides especially in the North American and European markets. Biopesticides are also witnessing a fast growth in Asia Pacific and South American markets.

Thus, various key players and startups in the biocontrol industry such as BASF SE (Germany), Bayer AG (Germany), Syngenta AG (Switzerland), Marrone Bio Innovations (US), and FMC Corporation (US) are developing and commercializing new biopesticides solutions. As a result, biopesticides segment in the biocontrol market is forecasted to grow at the fastest rate with a CAGR OF 15.9% during the forecast period.

Pest developing resistance to crop chemicals is creating opportunities in the biocontrol market.

Plant pathogenic bacteria, fungus, and insect pests are developing chemical resistance, and they are able to mutate to become resistant to crop protection agents. As a result, it has led to pest resurgence and reduced efficacy. Botrytis cinereal is one of the major pathogen species that have developed resistance. It affects the production of fruit and vegetable crops both during pre- and post-harvest times.

Multi-resistant strains have emerged in various nations as a result of excessive spraying activity. There has been an upsurge in interest in biological control of Botrytis through the use of plant-based products or antagonistic microorganisms, even if biofungicides cannot be compared to chemical protection against the disease.

Strains of bacteria (Bacillus spp.) and filamentous fungi (Trichoderma harzianum) are some of the major products being marketed. These products have been proven to be successful in controlling serious leaf and root diseases in crops and are frequently employed in controlled environments.

Competitive landscape

The global market for biocontrol is dominated by a few players, such as Bayer AG (Germany), Marrone Bio Innovations (US), Corteva Agriscience (US), Shin-Etsu Chemical Co. Ltd. (Japan), Certis USA L.L.C (US), BASF SE (Germany), Valent BioSciences (US), Koppert Biological Systems (Netherlands), Syngenta AG (Switzerland), UPL Limited (India), and FMC Corporation (US).

Employees at MOM's Organic Market'sstore in Timonium, Maryland,have voted to unionize with Teamsters Local 570, affecting more than 50 employees at the Baltimore County store.

Employees at MOMs Organic Markets store in Timonium, Maryland, have voted to unionize with Teamsters Local 570. The union said the vote was 93% in favor, affecting more than 50 employees at the Timonium location.

It is the third union vote at a MOMs location. Employees at the stores location in Baltimores Hampden neighborhood voted to join Local 570 in August. Workers at the College Park MOMs Organic Market location filed to unionize with the United Food and Commercial Workers Local 400last week.

There are two big reasons why I voted for the union, said Timonium store employee Joe Mowellt and organizing committee member in a statement released by Local 570. First, without a union I can be fired at any time for any reason with or without cause or notice.

Second, as a Team Member, there is no way to advance in pay. Ive been here five years, and Im still making close to the minimum starting rate. Now, with the union, we can work to change that.

Rockville-based MOMs Organic Market has 10 stores in Maryland, five in Virginia and one in the District.

MOMs Organic Market started as a small, organic produce distributor in 1987. It has recently expanded outside of the D.C. area, with stores in Pennsylvania, New York and New Jersey.

Westford, USA, Nov. 15, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Global baby food market is growing at a rapid pace, with demand is expected to exceed $99.75 billion by 2028. According to the market research firm SkyQuest Technology, the demand for baby food has been driven by an increasing number of parents who are seeking high-quality and nutritious foods for their children. One of the key reasons behind this growth is the widespread adoption of breastfeeding by mothers. Breastfeeding provides babies with essential nutrients and antibodies that help promote healthy development. As a result, more parents are looking to introduce complementary foods into their children's diets in order to ensure they are getting all the nutrients they need.

The baby food is made up of a number of different segments, including infant formula, wet and dry cereals, soups and broths, fruits and vegetables, meats/fish/poultry/eggs, and sweeteners. Each segment has its own unique features and opportunities that should be taken into account when planning marketing campaigns.

https://skyquestt.com/sample-request/baby-food-market

Some of the key players in the baby food market include Danone Group (France), Alexza Group (US), Nestle SA (Switzerland), General Mills, Inc. (US) and Bunge Ltd. (Norway). These companies are primarily focused on expanding their product offerings across different regions, which, in turn, is benefiting from rising consumer demand for quality food products for infants. Industry leaders are also targeting new segments such as high-value protein foods and purees, infant cereals, beans and legumes, fortified fluids and toddler snacks.

Further growth of the global baby food market will be attributed to growing population across developed countries and emerging economies, as well as increasing investments by major investors into the infant nutrition category. These factors will provide lucrative opportunities for industry participants to tap into new markets and offer innovative products that can meet the needs of consumers across various geographies.

Demand for Organic and Gluten Free Baby Food is Gaining Demand in Global Baby Food Market

According to SkyQuest's poll of 1,600 parents, baby food manufacturers are expected to see increased demand for organic and gluten free products over the next three years. Here are some key findings from the survey: 71% of surveyed parents said they prefer organic foods for their children, and 61% said they would like to see more gluten-free options on store shelves. The top reasons cited for choosing organic foods for their children in the global baby food market include environmental and health concerns (50%), safety concerns (44%), and preferences of the parents (40%). The main reasons cited for preferring gluten-free diets were health concerns (49%) and safety concerns (36%). In terms of where baby food is sourced from, the leading countries in terms of baby food production were China (21%), the United States (14%), France (13%), Canada (10%) and Japan (9%).

Interestingly, 40% of parents said that taste is a key consideration when purchasing baby food, while only 29% cited cost as a factor. Interestingly, health concerns have gradually become a bigger consideration for parents over time; 46% those who have purchased baby food in the past 12 months say that health concerns played a role in their decision, up from 32% in 2018.

While affordability is still an important factor for many parents in the baby food market, we're seeing more and more Toddlers and Preschoolers wanting healthier options. This trend is likely to continue as more people begin looking into which foods are most beneficial for their children's development.

Formula Milk Generates Over $55 Billion Revenue in Global Baby Food Market

There is no denying that formula milk is gaining popularity. Manufacturers are constantly coming up with new formulas and variations of the old favorites, and mothers are listening. In recent years, there has been a surge in popularity for vegan formula milk. Not only does this type of milk provide nutrients that a baby requires, but it also eliminates the need for dairy products, which can be inflammatory for some babies. Additionally, many parents are opting to give their babies vegan or all-natural formula milk, in order to avoid harmful chemicals and hormones found in conventional milk. While more and more moms are choosing to feed their babies homemade or all-natural formula, some health experts still recommend that breastfeeding be the best option for infants. However, most of the moms that cannot breastfeeding in the global baby food market due to undesirable due to lifestyle choices or medical reasons are found to be key consumers of the product.

However, the World Health Organization has released a report revealing the extent to which formula milk is being marketed as a cheap and easily accessible solution for mothers, but is in fact exploitative. According to the report, almost two-thirds of mothers in developing countries who use formula milk receive it free or at a reduced price from social programs or their own families. However, because these products in the baby food market are often not labeled correctly and because they are available at such low prices, many mothers end up overusing them, leading to health problems such as overweight and malnutrition.

Clean Label Baby Products Has Become Paramount Importance to Parent

Baby food has traditionally been marketed using terms such as 'natural' and 'organic', but recent changes in legislation mean that labels must now list all ingredients, including any additives or preservatives. This has created a demand for more accurate and transparent labeling, which is being met by a range of manufacturers who are starting to adopt clean label practices.

According to SkyQuest, there has been a significant increase in demand for clean label baby food products over the past year in the global baby food market. In fact, 43% of parents in 2021 said they are extremely or very important when purchasing baby food, up from 31% in 2017. Part of the reason for this increase is that parents are becoming more aware of the importance of clean labeling. In fact, 66% of parents said they always read labels when shopping for baby food, up from 50% in 2017. Additionally, 56% of parents said they would never buy a product if it did not have a clean label, up from 41% in 2017.

This increased demand for clean label products is likely due to two reasons. First, many people believe that it is important to give their children healthy and sustainable food options. Second, many parents are concerned about the ingredients used in baby food products and want to ensure that their child is eating something that is safe and healthy.

The rising health concerns and increasing obesity levels in human society have led consumers to cut back on animal protein consumption and switch to plant-based proteins as an alternative. Soy protein is a versatile protein supplement and contains well-balanced amino acids, making it comparable to animal protein. It also contains health-promoting compounds like isoflavones.

The growth of this market is backed by the increasing awareness about the benefits of protein-rich diets, the rising demand for protein-rich food products, the rising health & wellness trends, the increasing demand for meat alternatives, the rising demand from the food & beverage industry, and advancements in ingredient technologies, such as microencapsulation. Moreover, an increasing inclination toward vegan diets and emerging economies in the Middle East & Africa, Southeast Asia, and Latin Americaprovide significant growth opportunities for the players operating in this market.

However, the significant preference for animal-based protein, fluctuating raw material prices, and high demand for soy-free products obstruct the growth of this market to some extent.

Rising Demand from the Food & Beverage Industry is Expected to Drive the Growth of the Soy Protein Market

Proteins are used in the food industry for both nutritional and functional reasons. The human requirement for proteins can be met by consuming plant-based proteins. Increasing health awareness has resulted in global health and fitness trends in recent years. This has boosted the demand for healthy food products, especially low-calorie, nutritious, and weight-control products.

Speak to our Analysts to Understand the Impact of COVID-19 on Your Business:https://www.meticulousresearch.com/speak-to-analyst/cp_id=5053

The increasing demand for functional food is driven by the increasing prevalence of diseases, health awareness, nutritional requirements, and consumers' willingness to experiment with new products. As a result, the number of food products containing nutritional ingredients has grown significantly in recent years. These global consumer trends have increased the demand for functional food ingredients like soy protein.

Protein is a key ingredient in enhancing the nutritional content of food and improving functionality. A protein's most important functional properties are its water solubility, water & fat binding capacity, gel-forming & rheological behaviors, and emulsifying & foaming capability.

Soy protein is used in food applications because it can form gels, absorb juices during cooking, and have whipping and binding properties. Soy proteins are natural ingredients that are rich in protein and provide an appealing sensory aspect of food, shelf life, and stability in many food applications.

Soy protein is used in the manufacturing of weaning foods, porridge & gruel, cookies, crackers, muffins, bread, cereals, cakes, doughnuts, pasta, dry mixes, tortillas, nan & flatbreads, soups & sauces, ground meat, ground meat for patties, sausages, meatloaves, vegetarian foods, stews & soups, a variety of meat systems, baked goods, and specialty items.

Thus, the functional & nutritional properties and the applications of soy protein in a wide range of food products drive its demand in the food & beverage industry.

To provide efficient analysis, Meticulous Research has segmented this market based on type (soy protein concentrates, soy protein isolates, textured soy proteins, and soy flour, grits, & chunks), crop type (genetically modified organism crops and non-genetically modified organism crops), source process (conventional soy protein ingredients and organic soy protein ingredients), form (solid and liquid), application (food & beverages {meat, poultry, and seafood, bakery & confectionery, meat analogues, dairy & dairy alternatives, beverages, and other food & beverage applications}, animal feed, nutrition & health supplements, and other applications), and geography (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa).

Based on type, in 2022, the soy protein concentratessegment is expected to account for the largest share of the soy protein market. However, the soy protein isolate segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The rapid growth of this segment is attributed to the high demand for soy protein isolates from food & beverage manufacturers due to their nutritional and functional properties, including high protein content, neutral taste, and high viscosity.

Based on crop type, in 2022, the genetically modified organism crops segment is expected to account for the largest share of the soy protein market. However, the non-genetically modified organism crops segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The rapid growth of this segment is mainly attributed to the rising trend of consuming non-GMO food products, the rising demand for eco-friendly, natural, and organic food products, and stringent regulations for genetically modified crops in Europe and Asia-Pacific.

Based on source process, in 2022, the conventional soy protein ingredients segment is expected to account for the largest share of the soy protein market. This segment's large market share is mainly attributed to the wide availability of crops grown through the traditional harvesting method (with the use of chemical fertilizers), easy accessibility to cost-effective conventional soy protein ingredients, the longer shelf life of conventional soy proteins, and wide availability of substantial crop varieties. However, the organic soy protein ingredients segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The rapid growth of this segment is mainly attributed to the increasing demand for preservatives and additive-free products. In addition, the increasing trend of clean-label products, which are natural with fewer chemicals and additives, due to consumers' preferences is also driving the growth of this segment.

Based on form, in 2022, the solidsegment is expected to account for the largest share of the soy protein market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the growing demand for powder soy protein, ease of handling and transport, lower costs, lower chances of formulation errors, and their capability to maintain ingredient stability. Moreover, this segment is also projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

Based on application, in 2022, the food & beverages segment is expected to account for the largest share of the soy protein market. However, the nutrition & health supplements segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The rapid growth of this segment is mainly attributed to the changing lifestyles, growing health & wellness trends, and increasing prevalence of diseases.

Based on geography, the protein market in North America is developing and expanding at a significant pace. The large share of this region is primarily attributed to the well-established food & beverage industry, the rising concerns about the negative effects of animal-derived products and protein, the increasing vegan population, the growing preference for plant-based food products, the increasing demand for healthy & nutritional products, the rising health & wellness trends, and the growing consumer awareness about the health benefits of consuming soy protein.

However, Asia-Pacific is slated to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The rapid growth of this region is mainly attributed to the large vegetarian population, the growing awareness about the importance of consuming protein-rich diets, technological advancements in the food & beverage industry, and the wide availability of raw materials.

China is expected to dominate the Asia-Pacific market through 2029 as it is the world's biggest food & beverage and animal feed consumer. The substantial change in the consumption pattern within the country has led to increasing demand for soy protein.

The key players operating in the soy proteinmarket are Archer Daniels Midland Company (U.S.), Cargill, Incorporated (U.S.), Kerry Group plc (Ireland), International Flavors & Fragrances Inc. (U.S.), NOW Health Group, Inc. (U.S.), Burcon NutraScience Corporation (Canada), Sotexpro (France), Farbest Brands (U.S.), Wilmar International Limited (Singapore), CHS Inc. (U.S.), and Devansoy Inc.

As a vegan and sustainable food advocate, growing my own organic produce had always been something I wanted to do. I never thought it was possible right here in Hong Kong, a city famous for its skyscrapers, bright lights and bustling traffic. But it is. Heres what I learned during my urban farming journey.

I made endless excuses to not fulfil my farm-to-table dream. Despite writing about slow food pioneers like Alice Waters and the dedicated social entrepreneurs behind urban farming concept The Farmers in Singapore, I somehow convinced myself it was a task too difficult in Hong Kong. It would be far away from the city centre, I thought.

I was proven wrong. Hysan, a mall in the heart of Causeway Bay, runs a rooftop urban farming initiative. Yes, dozens of mini-farming plots right on top of a mall. The program is open to the public, and successful applicants will learn the basics of organic farming over the course of 13 weeks. By the end of it, youll be able to harvest your own seasonal produce.

Another excuse I made for myself was that urban farming would take up too much of my free time. False. Its a weekly commitment, yes, but it only took up an hour or two of my Saturday mornings.

At first, I thought the whole point of urban farming was getting the goods, so to speak. The day when Id get to harvest my own beautiful kale or Swiss chard, especially after the grueling first week of weeding, hoeing and ploughing. That wasnt easy, my back was a little achy and my muscles were definitely left tired. I wanted to be rewarded for my hard work.

But as the weeks went on after sowing our initial seeds, I became immersed in the process of tending to my seedlings. I not only looked forward to seeing how my plants would grow, but found the routine of watering, trimming, weeding, and loosening the soil enjoyable.

That being said, I was just responsible for my own little plot of farmland on a rooftopand it wasnt all sunshine and roses. It was frustrating when some of the seeds I sowed never sprouted, or when some of my baby lettuces were blown away thanks to the typhoon one week. In addition, manually hoeing and shoveling is way harder than it looks. It made me imagine having to work in a much larger field for commercial agriculture. I gained a new sense of appreciation for farmers who, despite keeping our global food system alive, are often vulnerable to workplace exploitation and are typically paid extremely low wages for their labour.Realizing the work it takes to get those ingredients onto your plate also makes you respect food itself and become much more mindful of food waste.

Read: 13 ways you can reduce your food waste footprint

Saturday mornings became the snippet of my week when I felt most at peace. It was almost like a refuge after a busy week. Youd think that being in Causeway BayHong Kongs shopping havenwould be anything but relaxing. But its quiet up there. You can hear little rustling sounds coming from grasshoppers trying to nibble your Pak Choi leaves. Shooing the jumpy insects away while trimming my coral leaf lettuce and watering my cherry radishes gave me the same sense of calm that a countryside hike would. Urban farming became my nature therapy.

Organic farming means no synthetic pesticides or fertilisers that wreak havoc on soil health. Instead, we rely on natural methods such as growing shallot bulbs around the plot and spraying our plants with garlic water to repel bugs. Its not foolproof, which inevitably means that soil insects like wireworms and herbivore grasshoppers will chew through stems and leaves. My Pak Choi and daikon radish greens bore the brunt of the damage, with many leaves punctured with tiny holes. While they look a little misshapen and imperfect, I promise they taste better than the commercially grown veggies available on supermarket shelves. My cherry radishes were mildly peppery and crisp, and my butterhead lettuce tasted sweeter than I imagined. Plus, knowing my veggies could be a potential climate solution made them that much more delicious.

After spending a few weeks at the urban farm, I realised this was going to be my new addiction, even for a big-city person. I came to enjoy getting my hands dirty and my shoes muddy every Saturday. Theres something so satisfying about planting, tending and finally eating your own fresh harvest. As the weather begins to cool down in the weeks ahead, Ill be able to harvest and enjoy my daikon radishand Im already thinking about what to plant next in time for Spring.

Growing Interest of Cosmetic and Skincare Manufacturers in Pomegranate Market

Cosmetic and skincare manufacturers have been growing increasingly interested in pomegranate as a natural ingredient for skin care products. Pomegranate is an excellent source of antioxidants, vitamins C and E, and other essential nutrients that can improve the look and feel of skin. Sunscreen manufacturers in the global pomegranate market are also interested in using pomegranate juice because it provides protection against UV damage without causing any irritation or excessive dryness. Pomegranate juice contains compounds called polyphenols which absorb UV radiation energy and turn it into heat instead of harmful light rays.

One reason why cosmetic and skincare manufacturers are interested in using pomegranate juice is due to its antioxidant properties. These properties help protect skin from the damage caused by free radicals. Free radicals can cause wrinkles and age spots, so using a product that contains antioxidants is essential for keeping skin looking young and healthy. In addition, the lactic acid in pomegranate juice can help to tighten the skin and diminish the appearance of cellulite.

Apart from this, pomegranate juice is increasingly being used cosmetics because it helps improve the appearance of acne scars in the pomegranate market. The fruit contains antioxidants that can help diminish the appearance of redness and inflammation associated with acne scars. In addition, pomegranate juice can help reduce the amount of oil produced by skin cells. This helps keep pores clean and reduces the risk of acne scarring returning.

Some cosmetic companies are already beginning to include pomegranate extract in their products. LOreal Paris has launched a line of facial moisturizers that include pomegranate extract, while Estee Lauder is using it as an ingredient in its new line of sunscreens.

Organic Pomegranate are High In Demand

According to SkyQuest study, global demand for organic pomegranates market (OPG) will grow at a CAGR of 6.1% between 2022 and 2028. This is driven by rising awareness of the health benefits of consuming organic foods, as well as the perception that organically grown foods are more sustainable.

As the awareness of these benefits grows, OPG sales will continue to increase in developed pomegranate market such as the United States and Western Europe, while emerging markets such as China and India will account for a greater share of total demand. The top five regions where OPG will see the greatest growth are: Latin America (9%), Asia Pacific excluding Japan (8%), Eastern Europe (7%), Middle East & Africa (6%) and Central & Eastern Europe (5%).

One of the reasons that organic food is in high demand is that it contains fewer environmental toxins. This is especially important to people who care about their health and want to eat wholesome and nutritious foods. Additionally, organic food often costs less than conventional food and has greater nutritional value.

In terms of geographic regions, North America is expected to lead the way in terms of growth for the organic pomegranate market. This is due to increasing concern about GMO ingredients and concerns about ruining farmland with synthetic fertilizers. Europe also stands to gain from increased interest in organic foods as well as an increase in eco-conscious consumers. Asia Pacific is forecast to see significant growth over the next few years as well due to burgeoning economies that are looking for more sustainable alternatives.

Specialty Schnucks Focused on Organic Items Opening This Spring - Riverfront Times

During a recent session at the U.N. Climate Change Conference, food waste advocates identified solutions including education, technology, and investment to reduce food loss and waste. The conversations were organized by Food Tank in partnership with the Food4Climate Pavilion.

As we are in this moment where were trying to avert a climate crisis that is upon us and thinking about how we build more equitable and inclusive food systems, we should also be thinking about how we build in opportunities for circular economies. says Lisa Moon, President & CEO of The Global FoodBanking Network.

More than one third of food produced globally goes uneaten, according to WWF, and if food were a country, it would be the third largest contributor of greenhouse gas emissions.

Tackling food loss and waste is low hanging fruit, says Bobby Chinn, a celebrity Chef, restaurateur, and television personality.

Chinn believes its possible to address the issue in a more accelerated manner than many of the other crises on the table at COP27. But with waste occurring all along the supply chain, from farms and markets to retail stores and kitchens, the panelists pointed to multiple interventions necessary to address it.

Speakers argue the public sector must step up.

The majority of governments have no incentives, and in many ways disincentivize food donations, Moon argues. Often, food businesses worry that they will be held accountable if they donate food that makes somebody ill, leading them to toss surplus stock. Moon wants to see more governments implement liability protections to encourage donations, keeping food out of landfills and redirecting it to those in need. Tax incentives can help encourage change as well, she says.

Food waste also belongs in governments Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), speakers argue. These national action plans outline strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and adapt to impacts of the climate crisis. but currently, just 21 countries address food loss and waste in their NDCs, says Oliver Camp, Senior Associate for Nature Positive Actions for Healthy Diets at GAIN.

As the world looks to push for changes in the NDCs, however, its important not to neglect the role of local governments, says Dana Omran, Global Director Strategy and Operations for the Resilient Cities Network. She argues that cities have long left decisions around food and agriculture to national governments. But they are the biggest consumers of food. At the same time, cities have huge issues with waste managementCities cant afford to not do something around food.

The Resilient Cities Networks new Urban Eats Campaign is working to help urban areas connect the dots, between issues. They are also sharing innovations and providing technical assistance to design new programs, including those that address organic waste.

But even when programs do exist on the ground, many require resources and capital to grow their impact. Desmond Alugnoa, Co-Founder of Green Africa Youth Organization, explains that in Accra, he has seen projects that are at tipping points and could just be scaled but there arent enough resources.

This is why Sara Farley believes that philanthropic institutions must be willing to embrace risk and support solutions that have the potential to grow. Philanthropy needs to put its neck out, recruit other funders, create unexpected alliances, and really be leaders that can bear some of the risk to smooth the pathway forward for others to step in, she says.

In the private sector Pete Pearson, Global Initiative Lead for Food Circularity at WWF, sees food retailers taking action by setting food waste reduction targets. But it wont matter if there isnt a culture shift taking place among employees in each individual store, he argues. You can put all these goals that you want, you can shine these fancy banners around reduction, but it still comes down to what happens at that local level, and thats the most difficult part.

To see the desired shift in food business operations, information is also essential.

Keith Agoada, CEO of Producers Trust, which convenes farmers and other supply chain stakeholders, regularly hears partners say we need data, we need accurate data at the source, and with that we can do our work.

Information flow is critical between farmers and businesses, agrees Pearson, Global Initiative Lead for Food Circularity at WWF. He also believes that information is going to unlock the profitability that will drive transformation.

The hospitality industry can also benefit from better data. Its really difficult to measure food waste, and most kitchens simply dont know how much theyre wasting, says David Jackson, Director of Marketing and Public Affairs for Winnow. The company, which uses technology to measure and reduce food waste in professional kitchens, finds that between 5-15 percent of food goes to waste in these settings.

Be really clear about setting yourself a target, advises Richard Swannell, Interim CEO of WRAP, and start measuring within your own business.

With food prices on the rise, it is an opportune time to address waste, with many chefs more mindful than ever of what makes it onto plates and what doesnt. As ingredients went up in cost, ingredients became more valuable, so you had to think more creatively about how you use the whole vegetable, how you use all of the elements, the byproducts, says Paul Newnham, Director of the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 2 Advocacy Hub.

This is something chefs have always been trained to do, Newnham continues, but as food became cheaper, waste became more acceptable.

Particularly in the Global North, theres a lack of respect for food, and thats been building in our society, particularly since the late 70s, says Lasse Bruun, CEO of 50by40. Food became not just something you need to have, but something you can have in abundance.

Now chefs are returning to the original mindset, Newnham says, placing more value on their ingredients again and embracing the idea that any bit of food is money.

The speakers also encourage everyone to frame food waste reduction efforts as not just an obligation, but an opportunity. In the kitchen, Food waste is a lack of imagination, Newnham says.

Chefs have the ability and expertise to take what some might view as scraps and turn it into a dish. They are the experts as it relates to making things taste good so we have to turn to them for knowledge and guidance, says Earlene Cruz, Founder and Director of Kitchen Connection.

Cruz, whose organization helps eaters contribute to a better food system, also advocates for better education to engage consumers and help meet them where they are.

Raphael Podselver, Director of UN Affairs for ProVeg International agrees, stating education, personal experience with food is very, very important.

With the many solutions available and economic and environmental benefits to be gained, Megan Moriwaka, Global Director of Sustainability, Iberostar Group says that food loss and waste represent an important opportunity.

And, she adds, if the world cant address it effectively, it doesnt bode well for solving the more complex challenges that are driving the climate crisis. Food waste is one of the very few topics that you can get everyone to say theres a win-win-win if we can solve this.
