If the same concept is extended to house hold management, then House wives also called home makers; also have responsibilities in reducing waste and managing waste since they keep the house in all respects including the financial control. If they consider foods and related waste to be managed so as to reduce wastage and esthetically produce food items, then they can help managing waste. Modern days’ house wives are aware of imbalanced economy and fluctuating price hikes of house hold commodities including groceries and

approaches used by house wives for reduction of wastage using an open-ended
questionnaire. The data collected through questionnaire has been processed to find out
