Professor Hennessy said much of the waste is in the home. Reading some of the information and research, it seems that a lot was to do with the machinery. Are there any numbers? A lot of waste happens during collection and harvesting. Is there any connection between the growers and the people who are designing the machines? Perhaps the growers could go to the designers and tell them they have a problem. Perhaps they could innovate.
