The Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) is complicated because it applies to different food businesses in different ways – and it is continually being updated. It may not apply to your farm or food business now, but it might in the future. Because of the many rules, it is almost an individual responsibility to determine if you’ll comply…but how do you decide?

This session provides an overview of FSMA in general, after which the presenters will discuss several distinct ways that food business owners might respond, depending on whether they are in retail or production, whether they are agricultural producers, or makers of value-added products, or .enterprises that transport food in the value chain.
