在确定粮食浪费是联合王国的一个关键挑战后，减少粮食浪费的必要性变得势在必行。根据慈善机构废物与资源行动计划（WRAP）的数据，2018年英国产生了约950万吨食物垃圾，其中70%用于人类消费。鉴于这种大量浪费，粮食安全可能在短期内受到威胁。此外，粮食浪费还通过碳排放对环境产生负面影响。尽管英国农民采用脱碳战略的人数正在逐渐增加，但有必要确定这些战略是否也有助于减少粮食浪费。这是一个关键的研究差距，拟议的论文旨在解决。

Having identified that food wastage is a key challenge in the United Kingdom, the need to reduce food wastage becomes imperative. According to the charity Waste and Resources Action Programme (WRAP), about 9.5 million tonnes of food waste was generated in the United Kingdom in 2018; 70 percent of which was intended for human consumption. Given this significant amount of wastage, food security may become threatened in the near term. In addition, food wastage also negatively affects the environment via carbon emissions. Although, the adoption of decarbonisation strategies is gradually increasing amongst UK farmers, there is the need to ascertain if these strategies have also helped to curtail food wastage. This is a key research gap that the proposed thesis aims to address.
