Maximizing efficiencies in the food system: a review of alternatives for waste abatement [during production, processing and consumption, maize as an example]

The biological and technological inefficiencies in the total food system are examined. Energy from sunlight is converted into human food with rather poor efficiency, as only a small portion of the energy available is recovered as food. Maximum efficiency in energy flow is obtained if humans consume...
