I think Anil is best to answer this question! But I’ll have a go:
The shelf life of food is important for two reasons. First of all, we throw a lot of food away every day because it has gone bad. Food goes off quite quickly if it’s fresh, but even packaged food eventually becomes bad to eat. If we can extend the shelf life of food, it’ll last longer, we’ll waste less and we can feed more people!
