dc.description.abstract | Bogor Botanical Garden has the most tourist visits amongst the other nature tourism sites in Bogor City. Most tourists spend almost 40% of their budget on food while traveling, and 50% of restaurant’s income earned from tourists. An eating out habit as a lifestyle has been increasing the volume of food waste while 93% of organic waste in Indonesia comes from food wasted. In this case, it’s hard to avoid food wasting because it’s related with habits but food waste causes environmental and economic loss because of the pollution and waste of resources along the production. Therefore, it needs a food waste prevention to support Zero Waste 2030 program in achieving SDGs number 12. The purposes of this research are (1) to k9ow the perceptions and behaviours of restaurant’s consumers about food waste; (2) to estimate the amount and loss value of food waste generated in resto; (3) to analyse the potential implementation of fines system for consumer’s food waste. The methods used in this research are descriptive analysis using Guttman, Likert, SNI 10-3964-1994, and Contingent Valuation Method. The results of this research show that knowledge about food waste issues and the confession of having food waste prevention in daily life, cannot ensure someone from wasting food. The high amount of loss value of food waste in restaurant (Rp872.338.472/year) shows the waste of resources that cannot be avoided. Thus, a fines system for consumer’s food waste leftovers can be one of the alternative solutions. The fine scheme based on mean WTP of restaurant’s visitors is Rp15.676 to Rp21.360 per 100 grams of food wasted (applies multiples), while for buffet menu is Rp50.000. | id |
