Grassroots Approach To Reducing Global Food Losses: Interview With Dr. Lisa Kitinoja
Postharvest food losses, often from lack of storage capacity, are a serious global problem and have been estimated to account for up to 80 percent of many perishable food crops. The Postharvest Education Foundation (PEF) is a non-profit organization that provides education and resources to reduce postharvest losses and build capacity across the globe. PEF's founder, Dr. Lisa Kitinoja, sits down with Food Tank to discuss the way the organization approaches this serious issue, along with the success stories they have seen so far.
