Increase in Unsold Food Collection

The Malaysian Agricultural Research and Development Institute (Mardi) reported a notable increase in unsold food collected from bazaars during the initial two weeks of Ramadan. This year's collection reached 30,000 kilogrammes, up from 25,000 kilogrammes in the corresponding period of the previous year.
Context of Ramadan Food Waste

While specific figures for the entire Ramadan period are not detailed for both years, the collection data from the first two weeks of bazaars highlights a trend of increasing food waste. In the broader context of 2023, Mardi had collected a total of 86,177 tonnes of food waste throughout the entire Ramadan period.
