Implikasi Pandemik COVID-19 Terhadap Tingkah Laku Masyarakat Bagi Menggelakkan Pembaziran Makanan Sepanjang Ramadan Di Semenanjung Malaysia

Saraswathy Kasavan

Abstract


Usaha mencapai kelestarian pengurusan sisa makanan di kalangan isi rumah tidak lengkap tanpa menganalisis tingkah laku masyarakat bagi menguruskan sisa makanan. Hanya sedikit perhatian diberikan kepada persepsi dan tingkah laku masyarakat terhadap hargai makanan dan elak pembaziran sepanjang Ramadan, walaupun ia memainkan peranan penting dalam penyumbang peningkatan penghasilan sisa makanan. Oleh itu, kajian ini telah meneliti jurang kajian dengan menjalankan kajian mengenai tingkah laku masyarakat bagi mengelakkan pembaziran makanan sepanjang Ramadan. Kajian ini menggunakan kaedah soal selidik atas talian  berkaitan  mengelakkan sisa  makanan dan data  sokongan berkaitan penjanaan sisa sepanjang Ramadan di seluruh Semenanjung Malaysia. Hasil kajian tinjauan ini mendapati masyarakat mempunyai kesedaran tinggi mengenai pembaziran sisa makanan sepanjang Ramadan pada tahun 2020. Hal ini disebabkan, masyarakat Malaysia yang beragama Islam lebih memilih sambutan Ramadan pada tahun 2020 secara bersederhana dan mengambil kira keselamatan kesihatan dari wabak penyakit COVID-19. Tambahan pula, kerajaan telah menghadkan waktu operasi dan bilangan peniaga di bazar Ramadan untuk mengelakkan risiko penyebaran COVID-19  di tempat awam. Selain itu, kerajaan juga mula mengalakkan rakyat untuk membeli makanan di bazar secara atas talian dengan mewujudkan aplikasi e-bazar. Hasil data sokongan SWCorp menunjukkan bahawa belaku trend penurunan bagi penghasilan sisa pepejal sebanyak 6.02% sepanjang Ramadan 2020 dibandingkan Ramadan 2019. Keseluruhan hasil kajian ini memberikan maklumat mengenai tingkah laku masyarakat terhadap pengurusan sisa makanan sepanjang Ramadan di semenanjung Malaysia. Kajian ini juga menjadi garis panduan kepada pihak kepentingan untuk mengambil strategi yang relevan ke arah mengurangkan penjanaan sisa makanan semasa dan selapas pandemik COVID-19.
