GAPs and FSMA – an Overview for Hop Growers in Virginia |
|
Food safety is a hot topic for hop growers and brewers. With multiple
acronyms for various practices, standards, and regulations: GAPs,
FSMA, PSR, PCR, and more; the confusion is understandable. Let’s
examine where the small-acreage hop grower fits in. This fact sheet serves as
an orientation to these standards,regulations, and practices as they may
apply to hops; it is in no way a complete set of guidelines or substitute for training. |

Guide to Identifying Food Safety Hazards in Greenhouse Systems |
|
According to the United States Department of Agriculture 2012 Census of Agriculture, sales from greenhouse-grown food crops equaled around $800 million in the U.S. Crops grown included tomatoes, lettuce, cucumbers, peppers, and berries, with hydroponic production operations making up about 64% of the total production (cwt) (USDA Census of Agriculture, 2012). Demand for greenhouse-grown produce continues to increase, providing growers with unique opportunities to tap into this expanding market. Although greenhouse systems provide a more protected environment than field-grown systems, it is important to understand the unique food safety risks and possible sources of contamination when growing produce in these systems. Identifying food safety hazards are necessary to implementing practices that reduce the risk of contamination during the pre-plant, production, harvest, and post-harvest handling stages. Use the checklist below to guide you in asking important questions targeting possible risks at each of the greenhouse system stages. |
