Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) - Decode the Essentials
Prevention of food safety issues has been a primary focus for the United States Food and Drug Administration (US FDA) over the past decade. To monitor and enhance food safety, FDA has introduced Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) in 2011, which emphasizes on all the aspects of food production, and supply chain; from farm to fork. The FSMA is aimed not only at preventing foodborne adversities but also at defining how the food is grown, harvested, packed, processed, shipped/imported into the U.S.
