# the table is superseded by the figure below, showing the reviewed position of [[WRAP]] for [[Food Waste]] at 9,500,000 tonnes in 2018 (a reduction of around 2,300,000 tonnes) taking the total arisings to around '''23,000,000 tonnes'''.

# within the report [[WRAP]] indicated that 3,612,000 tonnes of the total arisings shown was collected, the majority of which was [[Garden Waste]]. [[Food Waste]] collection has increased since that time to around treble that reported as collected (c. 780,000 tonnes) and an increase in composting at the home (c. 530,000 tonnes) results in [[WRAP]] now reporting 1,300,000 tonnes of collected [[Food Waste]]. With [[Garden Waste]] resonably static this means the 3,612,000 tonnes has increased to around 4,500,000 tonnes.

From the information above, 4,959,851 tonnes is reported as household (54% of the total) and slightly more than the estimated figure of 4,500,000 tonnes above (mainly as a result of [[Garden Waste]] assumptions). The tonnage reported as [[C&I Waste]] of 4,063,247 tonnes (45% of the total) will be predominantly [[Food Waste]], with only incidental other tonnage captured from other sources. This tonnage is higher than [[WRAP]] figures.
