Assessment of food waste reduction impact needs to include economic and biophysical indicators.
Economy-wide models as proposed in this paper can account for all market and non-market impacts of reducing food waste.
Reducing households' food waste increases savings; it decreases agri-food production and to a minor extent GDP.
Environmental indicators are improving as EU land use, water abstraction and greenhouse gas emissions decline.
