Waste of Fresh Fruits in Yaoundé, Cameroon: Challenges for Retailers and Impacts on Consumer Health

Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

It is advisable to double check the graphs, in particular: Fig. 2,3,5,6,7: value scales and data labels are missing;

The graph chosen for figure 2 is not easy to read;

132: lifespan or shelf life;

199: distance is an important element but previously it is never taken into consideration, why? are there data related to the case study?

The conclusions must be improved

Reviewer 2 Report

The paper has to be significantly improved. It is not so well edited (specifically all the figures) and it misses of a well structured division of sections. Discussion are too much long and conclusions too much short.

More details are reported in pdf file in attachment.

Some general recommendations:

Introduction (to revise)

For example: which is the novelty of this study? There are some other similar studies carried out on this topic? if so, please, include into the introduction a short but exhaustive literature review about your research.

Material and method (to revise)

For example: Too much poor information about the questionnaire.

Results (to revise)

Specifically, the quality of figures.
