Huge quantities of resources, even natural as water and fertilizer, are used to produce food that never reaches to the consumer’s table. Although, the problem of food losses is globally recognized, there are still limited reports for the sufficient management of its reducing, prevention and alternative areas of usage. Mainly, the investigations are focused on the geographical coverage, but Bulgaria could be considered as unexplored in this direction.
