El espigueo se reconoce en la ley como una herramienta de prevención de las pérdidas alimentarias en el campo.

Preventing food loss and waste is now law

Today, after three years working with the Collective , we've closely followed the plenary session of Congress and, finally, we can say that the State Law for the Prevention of Food Loss and Waste is a reality. It has been a long road, full of effort and demands, and although this progress is important, there is still much to be done.

 A key victory: from the first draft of the law, we fought to have gleaning included. And we succeeded: gleaning is recognized in the law as a tool for preventing food losses in the field.

 The law also strengthens the role of the social and solidarity economy, supporting models based on prevention and revaluation of surpluses from a circular perspective, as well as socio-labor integration projects.

 While we welcome the progress, we insist on the need for effective implementation and greater ambition in regulating the sector. The fight against loss and waste continues.
