During his presentation, Kristinsson noted that while an estimated 8% of fish is lost in discards, the genuinely startling figure is the estimated 35% waste rate at consumer level.
“Food waste is one of the biggest challenges,” he said before commenting that real advances are being made in utilising by-production, such as the work being done with 3D printing technology to make food products such as a cod castle, made with cod production offcuts.
Neil Auchterlonie from IFFO covered the future predictions for availability of raw material from byproducts.
