How AI can cut food processing waste - Fraunhofer Institute
A €10m project to slash food processing waste using artificial intelligence (AI) has been launched in Germany, focusing on meat, bakery and dairy production.
A study conducted by the Thünen Institute in 2019 revealed that about 30% of food waste occur in food production and processing.
The REIF project has 30 partners working on a long-term solution. The primary focus is designing an AI ecosystem, which includes participants at every step of the value chain. The project is funded by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWi) to the tune of €10m.
