Kiwi’s Wasteful eating Habits. KiwiHarvest general manager Blandina Diamond says in a recent interview with the Country’s Jaime Mckay. New Zealand industry generates more than 103,000 tonnes of food waste per year, and it is estimated that 60 per cent of food going to landfill is edible, Diamond said.
The hundred thousand tonnes a year is primarily just out of the food industry and sector. It doesn't account for how much food each household wastes a year - and that figure's double that of the food industry.
We can take that food and we can use it for the benefit of other New Zealanders.
