Webinar: FSMA PSR, Pre-Harvest Agricultural Water

During this one-hour lunchtime webinar, learn the ins and outs of the Food Safety Modernization Act: Produce Safety Rule (FSMA:PSR), Pre-Harvest Water changes. The final rule establishes requirements for systems-based pre-harvest agricultural water assessments for hazard identification and risk management decision-making.

Covered farms – those that are subject to the requirements in the FSMA:PSR – that use pre-harvest agricultural water for covered produce are required to conduct agricultural water assessments once annually, and whenever a significant change occurs that increases the likelihood that a known or reasonably foreseeable hazard will be introduced into or onto produce or food contact surfaces. As part of their pre-harvest agricultural water assessments, farms are required to evaluate certain factors that could impact produce safety as a result of pre-harvest agricultural water use.
