Abstract

[ES] Minimizar las pérdidas y el desperdicio alimentario en la cadena agroalimentaria es un reto clave en las políticas europeas y los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible. La falta de registros oficiales y datos fiables dificulta que se realicen actuaciones eficaces. Este artículo propone una metodología basada en los códigos CNAE agilizando el diagnóstico del problema en un territorio y muestra su aplicación en la Comunitat Valenciana (España). La metodología mejora las directrices de la UE sobre medición del desperdicio alimentario, facilita su replicabilidad en otras regiones y ofrece recomendaciones para que los territorios diseñen agendas que prevengan y reduzcan estas pérdidas. [EN] Minimizing food loss and waste along the agri-food chain is a key challenge addressed by European policies and the Sustainable Development Goals. The lack of official records and reliable data hinders the implementation of effective actions. This article proposes a methodology based on CNAE codes to streamline the diagnosis of this issue within a given territory and illustrates its application in the Valencian Region (Spain). The proposed methodology enhances EU guidelines for measuring food loss and waste, facilitates its replicability across other regions, and provides recommendations to support the design of territorial agendas aimed at preventing and reducing such losses.
