Abstract

Climate change is reported to have huge potential impacts on global agriculture, which vary by geographical region, crop or livestock type, and by the nature of the climatic changes. This paper reviews the relevant literature to determine how the economic impacts of climate change on the agricultural sector are compounded and specified at the regional level. The results show that rising temperatures generally reduce crop yields, and that the negative effects can sometimes be offset by increased precipitation. The winners and losers of climate change will vary geographically, but net yield losses are more likely in warmer semi-arid regions. This review also covers some of the methods used to assess the economic impacts of climate change on agriculture, such as experimental and cross-sectional studies and the Ricardian approach - each with its strengths and limitations. It also discusses the need for mitigation and adaptation strategies in the face of the challenges posed by climate change and highlights the need for context-specific approaches. The review concludes with a call for further research into rainfall patterns, the duration of natural disasters and the specific impacts of climate change on crop yields and nutrition.

Abstract

Food loss and waste (FLW) is a global issue with profound implications for food security, environmental sustainability, and economic systems. This problem is particularly acute in Maritime Southeast Asia, where individual contributions to FLW can exceed 150 kilograms per year. Despite its significance, applied research on the underlying causes, management strategies, measurement methodologies, and policy frameworks for FLW mitigation in this densely populated region (over 400 million people) is conspicuously lacking. Our comprehensive literature review identified only 15 articles directly relevant to the topic, offering a limited perspective on the complexities of FLW generation. The methodologies employed in these studies lack the robustness required for wider application within the region or for broader comparative analyses. The review, therefore, requires urgent, expansive research across the entire food supply chain in Maritime Southeast Asia and considers factors such as the social, technological, behavioral, and cultural, further elucidating what the real causes and drivers of FLW are within the region.

Abstract

This brief review highlights findings from research conducted in Indonesia, examining how packaging can play a crucial role in reducing food loss and waste within the supply chain. While the broader economic, social, and environmental ramifications of food waste are extensively covered in existing literature, this study specifically focuses on how innovative packaging solutions can mitigate food loss. In the realm of fresh produce, effective packaging not only preserves quality but also optimizes product protection, ventilation, and temperature regulation. The study explores several avenues for packaging improvements, including enhanced designs for distribution that reduce damage during transportation and handling, and consumer packaging innovations that help reduce household food waste by facilitating correct portion control and clarifying expiration date labeling. Furthermore, the adoption of pre-packaged goods is shown to streamline handling processes and improve inventory turnover in retail settings. A key insight from this research is that optimal waste reduction sometimes necessitates increased packaging use, highlighting the need for a holistic approach where packaging design is integrated thoughtfully with product needs to foster sustainability in the supply chain.
