- The document outlines a new methodology to measure food losses across the entire agricultural production process, from pre-harvest through post-harvest handling and storage. - Pilot studies in several countries found that food losses ranged significantly depending on the crop and country, with most losses occurring at the farm level due to weather events, pests, and lack of technology adoption. - Current projects are testing interventions like improved seed and fertilizer provision, market-based contracts, and decision support tools to incentivize quality and reduce losses in beans in Guatemala and Honduras.
