Dominican Republic: Policy Highlights and Opportunities
Every week, 1.1 million kilograms of food are lost or wasted along the supply chain in the Dominican Republic, with 93% of food lost in the production phase, alone. If recovered and redistributed, this food could help reduce food insecurity, which affected 10.4% of the population prior to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
