06.01.2022 UP TO half the food produced in Australia every year about 44 million tonnes is thrown away. According to an Australian Institute study, Australians are dis...carding food worth $5.2 billion a year. Shiny potatoes, carrots that are too big and bananas too sausage-shaped are being rejected by supermarkets, adding to the food waste burden. This food then rots on-farm or in landfill, producing methane and creating an environmental burden. At best, it is fed to livestock for far less than the cost of production. Potatoes SA chief executive officer Robbie Davis said Australian supermarket specifications were probably the highest in the world. Theres a lot of emphasis on aesthetics, Ms Davis said. A potato, a tuber that grows underground, now has to have the right skin finish and appeal visually, as does an apple, she said. Ms Davis said waste in the potato industry was at 20-40 per cent and studies had shown potatoes were consistently the highest contributor to horticultural waste. We have about a $3 billion agricultural waste in Australia each year and about $1.8 billion of that is horticultural loss, Ms Davis said. She said potatoes were rejected because they were too small, too big or had a funny shape. Were not talking about greening, bruising or mechanical damage or damage due to storage, were talking entirely about the way they look, Ms Davis said. The consumer has been persuaded to only accept fruit and vegetables that look a certain way and this is the result. Ms Davis said most of the potatoes rejected by supermarkets sold for stock feed for $1-$10 a tonne. Your input costs are exactly the same for the premium product, which is making hundreds of dollars a tonne, and the product that is rejected and going to stock feed, Ms Davis said. She said changing attitudes to imperfect produce would be hard and the best way to tackle waste was to value-add. I think it is much more rational and sensible to deal with the waste than try to change the supermarket attitude to this, Ms Davis said. Queensland food waste researcher Carol Richards said the Australian food supply chain was a broken system based on a false reality about what food should look like. Weve gotten used to food looking perfect we get detached from the fact its something that is produced in nature and nature doesnt create things quite so perfectly, Ms Richards said. I can understand that you dont want to eat an apple that looks like it might have had a worm in it, but youve got a situation where the margins on apple size are so small its only a few millimetres difference between an apple that makes spec and one that doesnt. Ms Richards said supermarkets had become the unelected de facto government of the food supply chain. I interviewed one mango farm that said they just leave the fruit that wont meet specifications to drop because they dont want to invest all the labour in moving it, Ms Richards said. Many farmers are working on very tight margins and they talk about ploughing things back in if they dont meet specifications. However not everyone is critical of supermarket specs. More than 100,000 tonnes of Queensland bananas go to waste every year because the fruit does not meet cosmetic retail standards. But Mackays Banana Marketing chief executive Richard Clayton said that while that seemed like a lot, it was only 5 per cent of total production. I think 5 per cent is a standard error for any kind of production, Mr Clayton said. There is food waste, but youre growing in the wind and the rain so its to be expected. Its up to our skills as growers to get over that and meet the specs I dont think the specs are unreasonable. Food recovery agency SecondBite chief executive Jim Mullan said since starting a partnership with Coles in 2011, the supermarket giant had donated more than 40 million meals. A Coles spokesman said Coles worked closely with its growers and suppliers to establish and agree on specifications. Specifications are based on a number of factors, including farm production, quality and product home life for customers, the spokesman said. These specifications include a range of factors such as size, colour, malformation and defects and have evolved based on historical information such as customer insights and feedback gathered over time. A Woolworths spokesman said the supermarket always worked hard with suppliers to ensure specifications strike the right balance to meet our customers needs. .
