Looking at the same issue, a European Parliament report, "Technology Options for Feeding 10 Billion People," stated that automating food processing lines with the right technology can improve sustainability in many ways, such as "optimizing product quality" and "reducing quality losses and defects, and decreasing energy and water consumption." This affirms that there are good reasons for processors to reduce waste and, by doing so, reduce inefficiencies, lower overheads and increase profits. As a leading provider of integrated post-harvest solutions to the global fresh produce industry, TOMRA Food is acutely aware of food waste and works closely with farmers, processors and retailers to tackle the issue. TOMRA's experience around the world shows that more needs to be done to prevent so much "good product" being removed unnecessarily from the processing line because of inefficient sorting. TOMRA is continuously developing sustainable solutions with its customers and many other companies. A quick-win can be gained by optimizing the latest sensor-based sorting solutions. The potential here is considerable. Optimized sorting machines are capable of determining, for example, that 70 percent of a poor-looking crop is actually of good quality. This makes a huge difference: At the same time as meeting precisely defined quality standards, the majority of the product can be sold and consumed, feeding people and making profit, rather than consigning it to waste. Selling fruit or vegetables as a lower-grade of produce, or for a different processed product than originally intended, is far better than not selling it at all. Waste can also be reduced through reverse sorting. Waste streams containing as little as 1 to 2 percent of good product are often discarded, but this is unnecessary. With the correct optical setup, arrived at by the sorting machine manufacturer having a good understanding of the potential purposes of "side-streams," automated sorters can recover this waste. This is becoming common practice in the nut industry, making better use of natural food resources and simultaneously adding commercial value and profit. For these profound reasons, sorting technology will play an increasingly important role in the supermarket of the future. And because the financial and ethical reasons for reducing food waste are urgent, that future needs to start right now.
