FDA Publishes Long-Awaited Agricultural Water Rule for Produce Safety
Rule was mandated by FSMA in 2011.
The rule establishes new recordkeeping requirements for a list of foods and will likely go into effect in 2026.
The report outlines the agency’s efforts to ensure the safety of foods from more than 200 countries and territories.
A recent raw pet food crack down is first example of FDA enforcement against an animal food manufacturer.
While the rule is here to stay, how is FDA judging compliance?
