What do you think about the latest developments in the food industry?

According to the Food and Agricultural Organisation (FAO), 95% of food waste in developing countries are unintentional losses at early stages of the food supply chain caused by financial, managerial and technical mistakes; storage and cooling facilities in difficult climatic conditions; infrastructure; packaging and marketing systems.
These are all problems that could be easily avoided by following a more rigid set of guidelines to avoid loss in food production which is evaluated at $1 trillion every year (about one third of all food produced worldwide).

I think the Middle East needs to improve it's food industry to be in touch with developments in the world quickly.

Non thermal technologies exert a minimal impact on the nutritional and sensory properties of foods, and extend shelf life by inhibiting or killing microorganisms. They are also considered to be more energy efficient and to preserve better quality attributes than conventional thermally based processes. Non-thermal processes also meet industry needs by offering value-added products, new market opportunities and added safety margins.

the technology of food processing must respect the nutritional value of food and take it at first priority because people eat food to many targetsbut the most important  target is immune them and improve their health  but we find a lot of food process technologies the reason for lost more of nutritional value like lost vitamines and  minerals when this technologies provide us a healthy and safe food we will be better until that happen the fresh food  still a very good way to immune and improve our health
