Tasmanian Food Cluster Survey of Production, Packing and Processing Food Loss; 2019 |
Confidential Tasmanian Survey for fruit and vegetable producers.
Following on from the Food Innovation Hub Tasmania forum in July 2019, the Tasmanian Food Cluster was formed; this is a volunteer organisation that has tasked itself with catalysing activities relevant to the Tasmanian food sector. The Cluster has taken responsibility for ensuring the priorities identified at the forum are being progressed.
Industry participants at the July forum wanted to see action taken to quantify the extent of on-farm and processing losses in Tasmania, with first priority given to fruits and vegetables. This information will help to better understand opportunities for processing and sale, and support the scoping and development of flexible processing facilities that can accommodate volumes of fruit and vegetables that are currently unsaleable.
All information gathered through the survey will be handled with the strictest of confidence. Only aggregated data will be publicly released so that the identity of survey contributors is confidential.
