Law No. 15.224 establishing the National Policy to Combat Food Loss and Waste (PNCPDA) and creating the Food Donor Seal.

This Law establishes the National Policy to Combat Food Loss and Waste (PNCPDA) and creates the Food Donor Seal. The objectives of the PNCPDA are: to increase the use of foodstuffs available for human consumption in the national territory; to mitigate food waste, thereby contributing to the reduction of food insecurity; to promote a culture of food donation intended for: a) human consumption, as a priority; b) animal consumption; c) use in composting or the production of biomass for energy generation, if unfit for human and animal consumption; to encourage commercial establishments that deal with food to promote education and awareness to combat waste, either within their own institutions or by supporting educational projects in this area.
