Losses can happen in the field (in developing countries, losses can often represent about 30-40% of a crop) during the processing and packaging process; or due to the lack of a storing and distribution system for the crops.
The infographic created by Farmingfirst.org shows all possible losses from field to fork and how to solve them.
For example, in the case of lack of a storage system, a household metal silo with a capacity of 1.000 kilos can conserve the grain needed to feed a family of five for one year, or allow a farmer to store surplus grain.
