The agro-food industrial wastes in the perception of consumers from Eastern Romania and the Republic of Moldova

Abstract

The agro-food industry is a very important part of the world’s economy, which continuously expands in both, Romania and Republic of Moldova. But, unfortunately, it generates huge quantities of wastes. An agro-food wastes related survey was applied to 263 consumers from Eastern Romania (116) and Republic of Moldova (147) in 2021, in order to assess the population’s opinion concerning this category of waste.
