About 40 percent of America’s food gets wasted between farm and table. Food waste contributes eight percent of global greenhouse gas emissions to our atmosphere. Additionally, food waste going to landfills has subsidiary environmental impacts that often go overlooked. For every piece of food wasted, the resources that went into growing and producing that food — the land, water, labor, fertilizer, and energy — is wasted along with it. IoT sensors – coupled with predictive analytics and machine learning – are being deployed to track food through supply chains to reducing waste.
