Farmers in developing countries are losing around .07% of their crops every year due to problems such as pests and weather changes.  It is important to research post harvest loss to decrease the number lost.  If we can reduce the amount of food wasted we can cut back on the amount of land we destroy for agriculture and at the same time reduce the amount of starving people around the world.
