- Abstract
This document discusses the potential for transforming food waste into high-value products. It highlights the nutritional composition and phytochemical compounds present in agricultural and agro-industrial waste, which can be reused for composting, animal feed, or as raw materials for new food products. The reuse of waste can contribute to the subsistence of farmers, increase incomes in agro-industries, and address concerns about food security and sustainability. The document emphasizes the importance of characterizing waste to determine the best technologies for adding value to the material. It also mentions the need for sustainability in food production and the development of natural ingredients and additives from waste. The document concludes by mentioning that this special issue includes articles on new ingredients and products derived from food waste and their role in food security and sustainability.
