Food Safety Implementation From Farm To Fork(Pb 2016)

Human behavior is intimately linked with violation or infringement of food safety principles when we discuss quality of food in eating establishments i.e. behavior of producers, suppliers, food business operators or food handlers. There are two approaches to promote compliance of stakeholders with recommended food safety practices-educative and legislative. Though the government has done its job by enacting Food Safety and Standards Regulations (FSSR) 2011, we need to promote awareness levels of users and their skills through training on various aspects of food safety. This book aims to serve this purpose.Food safety is a collective responsibility of government, industry and consumers. There has been a rise in food safety hazards due to increased processing and lengthening of food safety chain from `farm to fork`. Toretain consumer confidence in the food industry, safety and quality of foods must be assured. This book attempts to provide a comprehensive approach to ensure food safety following the `farm to fork` model. This book will support the needs of all those working in the area of food safety and add value to the existing food safety- related repertoire for ensuring knowledge, training and skills of stakeholders of food industry. It covers all food safety issues comprehensively and will serve as a handy reference for most most `food chain` professionals.
