Az élelmiszerpazarlás jelenlegi helyzetének bemutatása Magyarországon

Our research focuses on food waste, one of the global problems of our time. Food waste has not only economic but also significant environmental and social consequences. Our aim is to highlight the importance of sustainable food consumption and production in the light of relevant figures, to provide a comprehensive picture of the current situation of food waste in Hungary and to serve as a starting point for other similar research closely related to this topic. In order to achieve this, the background to the topic and existing good practices will be examined. Based on the literature, it can be concluded that there is a significant amount of food waste in households, which could most likely be prevented. A collection of good practices that companies and businesses have launched to reduce food waste has been compiled. It would be worthwhile to raise awareness of these food waste reduction opportunities, alternative uses for food leftovers and composting, through a targeted marketing campaign to raise awareness of the issue.JEL code: Q56
