APEC Seminar on “Strengthening Public-Private Partnership to Reduce Food Losses in the Supply Chain” 5-8 August, 2013, Taipei Future Action Plan and Toolkit Idea APEC/ ATCWG&PPFS Multi-Year Project “Strengthening Public-Private Partnership to Reduce Food Losses in the Supply Chain” (M SCE 02 2013A) Ching-Cheng Chang Chinese Taipei August 7, 2013

2. OUTLINE • Background • Objectives • Implementation • Phase I~III • Information Platform (Data, Method, Tools) • Survey (Stocktaking, Capacity Building) • Participants • Project Overseers • Focal Point Network

3. Background Increasing Population Pressure on Food Supply FAO estimates world’s population will grow to 9.1 billion people by 2050 Increase of food supply may not satisfy the demand of human need . FoodSecurity Enhancing Public-Private Partnership Excessive Food Losses UN’s research reveals one-third of food for human consumption was wasted globally, about 1.3 billion ton per year • It is vital of importance to strengthen Public-Private Partnership (PPP) to reduce food losses

4. 2012 APEC Leaders’ Declaration ATCWG’s Medium-Term Workplan (2010-2015) 2010 Niigata Declaration on APEC Food Security 2012 Kazan Declaration on APEC Food Security PPFSs Action Plan for 2012-2013 Relevance to APEC Responding to Addressing key issues in Supporting Representing continuously effort to Achieving .

5. Objectives of Project (1) To identify key issues on reducing post-harvest losses and costs along the entire food supply chain 1 To seek best practices in private and public sectors on reducing post-harvest losses and costs 2 To enhance the role of public-private partnership (PPP) along the entire food supply chain 3

6. Objectives of Project (2) To reinforce policy coordination among APEC economies 4 To search and identify practical solutions and enhance capacity-building 5 • To establish • a toolkit, dataset on reducing food losses, • a consolidated methodology of food losses assessment 6

7. Phase I (2013) • Establish a Focal Point Network • (FPN) Build a solid foundation for future project implementation • Study the current status and • key issues of post-harvest food losses • in the APEC region Hold a seminar with on reducing food losses on food crops Formulate a methodology of food losses assessment, Establish a toolkit and dataset

8. Annual seminar Phase II (2014-2016) • Fruit and vegetables in 2014 • Fishery and livestock products in 2015 • Food losses & wastes issues occurred on the food consumption in 2016 Continuous Actions • Improve the methodology, and enriching the toolkit and dataset • modify and extend the methodology of food losses assessment on other types of food • Trace and monitor the progress of applications

9. Phase III (2017) To synthesize the previous progress of the project and to generate the final conclusion of policy recommendations Propose Policy recommendations & follow-up strategies A consolidated methodology Completion of Toolkit & dataset A High-Level Policy Dialogue Meeting Upload in Asia-Pacific Information on Food Security (APIP) website

10. A preliminary methodology on food crops Understanding of post-harvest food losses Best practices & Public-Private Partnership (PPP) Toolkit & dataset For solutions 2013 APEC Seminar (1) “APEC Seminar on Strengthening Public-Private-Partnership to Reduce Food Losses in the Supply Chain” August 5th-8th, 2013, in Westin Taipei, Taipei Objectives key issues and challenges

11. Strategies to Improve Post Harvest Loss System APEC Food Security • Linking Postharvest technology with food security and safety • Linking small farm/agribusiness with global supply chain • Linking technology and management capacity building Post Harvest Loss Value Chain System Handling and Storage Consumption Distribution and Marketing Agricultural Production Processing and Packaging Quality Safety Affordable Timely • Facilitating Factors • Access to market information • Access to affordable technologies adapted to local conditions • R&D on resistant variety, cost-effective drying, storage, grading, packaging, .. • Infrastructure investment on road, storage, water/electricity supply, … • Setting standards and creating incentives for collective marketing • Mainstream postharvest loss reduction into agricultural policies • Facilitate credit to small farmers and supply chain actors

12. Project Deliverables and Sustainability • APIP-PHLOWS Webpage • Methodology  PHLOWS Calculation Template • Dataset  Input and Output for PHLOWS • Toolkits  Provide Solutions and Contact Info https://sites.google.com/site/apecharvestlost/

13. APIP-PHLOWS Calculation Template • Purpose • Support food security policy formulation • Identify opportunities to improve food value chains • Monitor and evaluate PHL reduction activities

14. Data Source • FAOSTAT: • Food Balance Sheet (Annual, ~ 2009) • Producer Prices (Annual, ~2010) • Population (Annual, ~2010) • Statistical Report of Each ME • Annual Production Data • Loss Ratios – by product, stage • Allocation factor: food vs nonfood use for fresh and processed • Conversion factor • Edible factor
