Overall, about 23 million tons of food are wasted in the country annually, with one-third of the waste occurring in households, according to estimates by an NGO.

October 16 was the World Food Day. One-third of all food produced in the world is lost or wasted, equating to nearly 1.3-1.6 billion tons of food with a value of 1.1 trillion euros each year. This is the equivalent of six trucks of edible food lost or wasted every second.
