The process of collection, transport, disposal, recycling and monitoring of food and agricultural wastes is called food and agricultural waste management. Food and agricultural waste management can be costly so it is important to understand the various effective, sustainable and safe means of its management. The three points ‘R s “Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle have become basic tenet in food and agricultural waste management due increase in generation of wastes, increasing in processing costs and decrease in available landfill space. There should be flexibility in food and agricultural waste management systems in light of changing environmental, social and economic conditions. To optimize, evaluate, adapt and define food and agricultural waste management systems, the information and feedback can be obtained from system analysis.

      Due to industrialization, urbanization and increase in population density, there has been an increase in the accumulation of waste. The waste include radioactive substance, agricultural wastes, food wastes, industrial wastes, municipal wastes. Garbage and paper waste etc. There has been decrease in the availability of open land and space for disposal of waste due to intensive use of agricultural land for residential, industrial and commercial purpose.

      State and local authority must be contacted for necessary permits obtained before land application. Many permits require ongoing monitoring of groundwater and possibly soil and plant matter. Hydraulic loading is often ignored. If the site has a high water table or low permeability, the amount of water that can be applied generally is reduced. In some food processing waste, the level of salt is too high for land application. Most food processing waste land application sites should be designed by a professional who has experience in these type systems.

      Presently, world population are increasing day by day which creating a huge amount of food and agricultural waste which ends up in landfills, also can be re-purposed. The United Kingdom was the first country to introduce the law for food and agricultural waste management in due to health and hygienic issues in the civil society and cities areas.
