This webinar, by Erin Silva of the University of Wisconsin and Dan Stoeckel of Cornell University, took place on March 29, 2016.
About the Webinar
For produce farms, 2016 marks the beginning of timelines established for operations to come into compliance with the FDA’s regulations associated with the Food Safety Modernization Act. While it still remains unclear as to how many aspects of the regulation will look “on the ground”, this webinar will address what diversified organic vegetable farmers need to begin thinking about with respect to moving forward toward compliance.
