“…As an example, the consumption and distribution phase varies between 10% and 30% of the total of meals produced and not consumed, and are similar to each other (Leinig et al, 2017, Gonzáles et al, 2017, Galian et al, 2016, Pistorello et al, 2015, Parisoto et al, 2013, Pikelaizen e Spinelli, 2013, Fugii et al, 2010, Ricarte et al, 2008.

The most commonly found in the literature are those referring to using new technologies, mainly in pest control.…”
