SÜRDÜRÜLEBİLİR GIDA SİSTEMLERİ: ÜRETİMDEN TÜKETİME GIDA KAYBI VE ATIKLARIN ÖNLENMESİ İÇİN STRATEJİLER

Bu çalışma, sürdürülebilir gıda sistemlerinin önündeki en büyük engellerden biri olan gıda kaybı ve atığı (GKA) sorununu, üretimden tüketime uzanan tedarik zinciri boyunca bütüncül bir yaklaşımla incelemektedir. Kapsamlı bir literatür sentezi yoluyla, GKA'nın ekonomik, sosyal ve çevresel boyutları analiz edilmiş; sorunun kökenleri tarımsal üretim, hasat sonrası işlemler, perakende ve tüketim aşamaları özelinde detaylandırılmıştır. Bulgular, GKA'nın yalnızca teknik altyapı eksikliklerinden değil, aynı zamanda politika boşlukları, piyasa dinamikleri ve yerleşik tüketici davranışlarından kaynaklanan çok katmanlı bir sorun olduğunu göstermektedir. Çalışma, bu sorunla mücadele için teknolojik yenilikler, döngüsel ekonomi modelleri, destekleyici yasal düzenlemeler ve davranışsal müdahaleleri içeren çok yönlü stratejilerin gerekliliğini vurgulamaktadır. Sonuç olarak, GKA'nın azaltılmasının Sürdürülebilir Kalkınma Amacı 12.3'e ulaşmada ve daha adil ve dirençli gıda sistemleri inşa etmede merkezi bir rol oynadığı ve bunun için tüm paydaşların koordineli eyleminin şart olduğu ortaya konulmaktadır.

PREVENTING FOOD LOSS AND WASTE ALONG THE SUPPLY CHAIN: STRATEGIES FOR SUSTAINABLE FOOD SYSTEMS

Alihan COKKIZGIN1 , Hatice Çokkızgın2 , Ilkan Ali OLGUNOĞLU3 , Mine Perçin OLGUNOĞLU 4

This study provides a holistic examination of the problem of food loss and waste (FLW), one of the most significant challenges for sustainable food systems, across the entire supply chain from production to consumption. Through a comprehensive literature synthesis, the study analyzes the economic, social, and environmental dimensions of FLW and details its root causes at the specific stages of agricultural production, post-harvest handling, retail, and consumption. The findings indicate that FLW is a multi-layered problem stemming not only from technical and infrastructural deficiencies but also from policy gaps, market dynamics, and ingrained consumer behaviors. The paper highlights the necessity of a multi-faceted strategic approach to tackle this issue, encompassing technological innovations, circular economy models, supportive legal frameworks, and behavioral interventions. In conclusion, the study posits that the reduction of FLW plays a central role in achieving Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 12.3 and in building more equitable and resilient food systems, and that coordinated action among all stakeholders is essential to achieve this objective.
