Alimentos e resíduos alimentares
Alimentos e desperdícios de alimentos são indicadores da eficiência da produção agrícola em uma fazenda. Os elos da cadeia de abastecimento alimentar são avaliados quanto à relação consumo-produção. Outro elemento de medição é representado pela diversidade cultural de consumo.
A comida como marca cultural: sua escolha também determina seu status social. Mas como e quanto produzir? É preciso dar respostas técnicas concretas às desigualdades e contradições para a construção de uma sociedade democrática e de uma perspectiva de desenvolvimento..

Açao 2
On the one hand, statistics show the growth in the number of those suffering from hunger and to this contribute to the increase in food prices, the decrease in the economic resources of the poorest populations, the limited access to the market and food. Por outro lado, it is confirmed that the land can sufficiently feed all its inhabitants. In fact, although in some regions low levels of food production remain, globally this production is sufficient to satisfy both the demand for current food and that expected in the future.
At the same time, these data indicate the absence of a cause-effect relationship between population growth and hunger, and this is further proven by the deplorable destruction of foodstuffs as a function of economic profit.
Hunger does not depend so much on material scarcity, but rather on the scarcity of social resources, the most important of which is of an institutional nature. That is, there is a lack of economic institutions able to guarantee access to regular and adequate food, and to meet the needs connected with primary needs and with the emergencies of real food crises.
Neste contexto, the management of food production flows becomes crucial in supporting or not supporting the social development of producing populations.
It is therefore clear that “Designing Food” is needed.
By design we mean the set of planning and planning phases of activities that will lead to an expected result, which can be totally, partially or even missed.
Almost all human activities resort, more or less effectively, to planning through the most appropriate means, strategies and actions to achieve certain goals.
Specifically, “designing food” means organizing and rationalizing a supply chain activity.
In a process of supply chain the stakeholders operate, the various economic agents, who intervene directly or indirectly. The expected result is to satisfy consumers’ food needs in terms of nutritional needs, food quality and food safety, in a context of environmental sustainability and protection of social rights.
By virtue of these expectations, designing food is really complex and planning the food chain is a “work” in constant transformation given the increasingly numerous aspects that design must necessarily involve. In fact, planning choices cannot be ignored from considering some fundamental aspects such as safety, animal health and welfare, plant protection, food production and distribution, innovation in the food sector.
Food design also means protecting consumers from the risks associated with food, from the field to the farm and from the farm to the table.
The design machine is operated on the basis of the needs and demands of consumers, through which the supply chain is climbed upstream and the design strategies are set. Para este fim, the collection of data on food consumption trends and habits is crucial to better understand what is expected to be found on the table and better to guide the design choices.
