FPSC A&NZ has launched a fact sheet on the impact of animals on the risk of foodborne illness in the fresh produce sector. The fact sheet covers the food safety risks associated with both wildlife and intensive animal production. The fact sheet also outlines recommended practices for managing the co-existence of animal and crop production.

The fact sheet was written by researchers from the ARC Training Centre for Food Safety in the Fresh Produce Industry, FPSC Board Member Professor Robyn McConchie from the University of Sydney and Dr Michele Jay-Russell from UC Davis’ Western Center for Food Safety.

The fact sheet can be accessed here.
