dc.descriptionThis tool kit outlines key considerations in the processing stage of food production, focusing on factory layout, material flow, loss management, and waste handling. It explains that efficient physical design reduces unnecessary movement and contamination risks by ensuring a structured flow from intake to packaging and separating process stages. It highlights that actual material use differs from calculated amounts due to losses during sorting, processing, and packaging, which must be incorporated into production rate calculations. The document emphasises minimising losses, particularly at later stages where value is highest, through quality inputs and trained staff. It also addresses waste management, distinguishing liquid and solid waste, and stresses responsible disposal and potential by-product utilisation.en
