Description
WWF-UK and Tesco are working to reduce the scale and impact of farm stage FLW, focussing initially on how we can support farmers to measure and report food loss. In order to enable this, we are calling on the UK Government and actors within the UK food market to aid in the development of scalable solutions to the barriers farmers face to measuring and reporting. Driven to Waste illustrates that many of the drivers of farm stage food loss stem from decisions made beyond the farm gate by market actors and policy makers. WWF-UK and Tesco take the view that where wider supply chain actors play a role in driving food loss on farms, we must all take action to help reduce it. As such, this work focuses on engaging stakeholders in the supply chain to co-create support and solutions for the difficulties farmers face in measuring and reporting food loss. The outcomes of this work should centre on support and actions that are deliverable by the wider supply chain, in order to facilitate farmers measuring and reporting. It is essential that farmers voices are central in the development of any actions. To enable this WWF-UK is currently undertaking work to understand better the barriers and difficulties causing so few farmers to be measuring food loss. We see the potential for action ranging from supporting the use of on-farm technologies to exploring policy changes, consolidating existing metrics and centralising reporting into an easy-to-use system. We are seeking an experienced consultant to help us design, facilitate and analysis a number of co-creation workshops with a variety of food supply chain stakeholders in order to develop a roadmap to all UK farmers measuring and reporting food loss on farms. The work would include scoping out the priorities and key interventions for this strategy in a UK, in order to help us advocate for an integrated approach that will make most impact and producing a comprehensive approach and delivery strategy. PROPOSED TIMELINE Deadline for proposals: 26th November 2021 Kick off meeting: w/c 6th December 2021 Workshop plan delivered by: January 2022 Workshops: January/February 2022 Draft report: w/c 7th March 2022 Final report: w/c 4th April 2022 Responses and questions should be sent to Dr Lilly Da Gama, Food Loss and Waste Programme Manager, ldagama@wwf.org.uk.
