RESPONSABILITY

Synthesis:

There are many forms for preventing a food waste or simply for preventing that the food damage. and then of wasting food there are some options you can take, you can transform the food into raw materials or you can use the food as a fertilizer to your garden and plants, you can reuse food in many ways and prevent that in the future we don´t have as much as waste as we have today, so decide if you want to gave the same opportunity of food that you have to your children.

and technological development in Japan
Food waste used to be well utilized as animal feed in Japan. The use of food waste, however, declined due to the introduction of commercial concentrate feed and high performance exotic breeds, accompanied by a change of producer’s strategy in pursuing more efficient production. The quantity and quality of food waste also altered due to a change in lifestyle. The system used in the past can no longer be applied. The relatively low price of imported animal products and feed, due to foreign currency rates, has also been disturbing the efficient use of food waste as animal feed in Japan. While some of the food industry’s by-products, whose quality and quantity do not fluctuate, are being used as a part of dried concentrate feed or Total Mixed Rations (TMR), the quality of most food wastes fluctuates considerably and its safety is of concern. Consequently, its use as animal feed is limited. Such wastes have been incinerated and put into landfill. This process induces emission of global warming gases and toxic substances such as dioxin and heavy metals. It is reported that the amount of food waste in Japan is 20 million tonnes per year, of which the amount used for fertilizer and feed are 3 percent and 5 percent, respectively. In order to alleviate the environmental burden from food waste, a foodrecycling law has been in force since May, 2001. Under this legislative system, many projects have been initiated. Most of activities have been related to the production of compost but, as there has been limited acceptance of this by crop farmers, it was proposed that the waste which can be safely used should be In September 2001, just after the introduction of this law, an incidence of Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) was reported in Japan. So far, only three cases of BSE have been diagnosed. This created a serious problem for the activities promoted by the food-recycling law. The use of food waste containing mammalian meat was temporarily banned. It was announced later by the Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, however, that food waste containing meats, which were originally processed for human consumption, could be fed to swine, but not to ruminants. To change the feeding system from the one based on imported concentrate to a recycling system, it is necessary to develop a series of technologies, as follows: Feed evaluation • Processing • Feeding system • Meat quality • Feed safety
