Authors : Chenafi Kafia . Ghebouli Ahmed .
Abstract
This paper aims to study the reality and background of food waste in bread consumption in Algeria, and specifically focuses on an analytical study of this issue in the state of Setif. Food loss and waste (FLW), especially in bread, is a problem that has often been neglected and not properly studied or documented, despite its serious implications for achieving food security in the region and improving the sustainability of the food system. Bread is a subsidized commodity in Algeria, sold at much lower costs than its production expenses, and the state allocates significant resources to provide the raw material, which is wheat that is mostly imported to cover any shortages. Therefore, this waste will inevitably affect food security in Algeria unless possible solutions are found to reduce it. The study concluded several results, including the absence of a structured policy to address the issue of waste in bread, and no direct relationship between population growth and the increase in bread waste.
