“…Any raw material produced for human consumption that is removed from the value chain for any reason may be considered FLW [29,30]. Globally, this equates to 1.6 billion tons annually [30,31] and includes raw material rejected due to inferior quality or not meeting manufacturing specifications [32].…”

The increases in consumer awareness of the potential health benefits of green tea have driven global demand for green tea products. This study investigated the effect of post-harvest processing and storage of Japanese-styled green tea (Camellia sinensis var. sinensis) grown in NSW, Australia. Harvested material underwent a processing delay of 6, 12, 18 or 24 h at temperatures of 0, 5 and 25 °C. Targeted green tea constituents: theanine, caffeine and catechins were determined using HPLC with UV detection. Product quality and commercial value were determined using the Quality Index (QI) Tool. Reductions in constituent levels were evident within all storage delays, with nominal quality preservation achieved by reducing the temperature. The green tea material stored at 25 °C for 24 h created the most commercially valued product, despite it having visual characteristics more akin to a semi-fermented tea. These visual characteristics are traditionally considered markers of green tea damage and are discarded; however, QI-Tool scoring suggests that this raw material presents as a commercially favourable source of food loss and waste (FLW). The findings of this study extend our understanding of post-harvest processing delays and storage on green tea quality and suggest the viability of a commercially valuable semi-fermented produced from FLW.

“…It can import and process information from Scopus and WoS, analyze the index of scientific literature, and construct the data matrix; the co-citation, coupling, co-, and co-word analyses; and other aspects of research and visualization [52] from recent years in various fields of scientific research [53][54][55]. VOSviewer, developed by Nies Jan van Eck and Ludo Waltman, is widely used in all kinds of co-occurrence analysis software, especially in terms of keyword co-occurrence analysis [56][57][58][59][60][61]. CiteSpace, developed by Professor Chen Chaomei of Drexel University in the United States, is known for its powerful document co-citation analysis.…”

The issue of food security has been widely studied by the international community. To reveal the research situation as it pertains to food security objectively, this paper comprehensively utilizes bibliometrics techniques (i.e., Bibliometrix, VOSviewer, and CiteSpace) to explore the research status and development trends in the area of food security. The results show that: (1) food security research has shown an increasing trend during the past 30 years. The 2013–2019 period was shown to be an active period with a high yield of articles, which were published mainly in the developed regions of Europe and America. Particularly, the number of articles published in the United States was far ahead of other countries in the world. (2) Food security research involved agriculture, environmental science and ecology, food science and technology, and business economics. The research topic is an interdisciplinary subject with a good momentum of development and a large space remaining for research. (3) Climate change, poverty, gender, nutrition, and diet structure have been the focuses of food security research in recent years. Food security in China, India, and sub-Saharan Africa has attracted wide attention. (4) Food security research is becoming more and more mature. The research scope extended from food security to food security and water and land resource security. Research topics range from decentralized to systematic. (5) Food security research is likely to gain much attention in the future based on three pillars: food supply, food access, and food use. Sustainability and diversity of food supply, along with dietary restructuring and food conservation initiatives, are expected to be new trends in future research on land management.

“…The keywords were queried on two databases, Scopus and Web of Science (WoS), which are considered the most comprehensive databases of peer-reviewed journals that store a broad range of scientific papers (Chadegani et al, 2013;Nobre and Tavares, 2017;Mokhtar et al, 2019). Additionally, both databases have been used extensively in producing SLR in the field of circular economy (Homrich et al, 2018;Merli et al, 2018;Türkeli et al, 2018;Sehnem et al, 2019) and FLW management (Chen et al, 2015;Ferrazzi et al, 2019;Gorzen-Mitka et al, 2020). The merging of two databases is beneficial in order to increase the likelihood of finding all the relevant contributions and to provide a high level of rigour in searching and selecting the papers to be included in the subsequent analysis (Centobelli et al, 2017).…”
