This course shows how food waste can be reduced along the entire value chain - from the field to the plate.
The project is primarily aimed at apprentices and teachers in basic vocational training as well as professionals in the food and catering industry. The course is also suitable for interested private individuals who would like to expand their knowledge of food waste and apply practical solutions to reduce it.
