    Global Food Loss and Waste Data

  The United Nations Environment Programme released the Food Waste Index Report 2024, indicating that global per capita food waste reached 132 kilograms in 2022, accounting for one-fifth of total food available to consumers. Food waste remains a global challenge, with approximately 783 million people worldwide still suffering from hunger.

  The USDataverse Global Food Loss and Waste Dataset systematically compiles food loss causation data from scientific literature reviews and FAO statistical databases, covering food waste patterns in over 120 countries/regions worldwide since 1966. It includes critical parameters such as **Country , Region , Food Category , Loss Quantity/Proportion , Causes of Loss , Sample Size , and References **, to support academic research and assessment of food loss and waste across supply chain stages and geographical areas.
