Description

We are seeking an experienced consultancy, or consortium, to develop a uniform, global on-farm food loss metric that can be accessed by growers of all sizes and crop types in order to support measurement and reporting of food loss on farms. The work will focus on consolidating existing metrics for simplification of reporting whilst building on them to ensure the new tool meets the needs of the key stakeholders (e.g. farmers, FAO, retailers and national governments).
