Irrigation Water Regulations, Traceability, and Recall: Info for Produce Farmers Concerning FSMA
February 22, 2016This meeting will provide information and answers to questions on several of the more complicated sections of the new FSMA regulations going into effect for produce growers. There will be a focus on irrigation water and what is required for testing your water sources, record keeping, how to set up a meaningful traceability program, and how to conduct a recall.
Focus on irrigation water will include:
- What's required for testing for wells and surface water sources?
- How many tests, how often, when to take them and how to take them?
- Interpretation of results
- How to set up an irrigation water test result profile and what it means
- What are the regulations for contamination levels?
- What to do if a water sample fails?
Cost: $25 Cornell Vegetable Program enrollees or Lake Ontario Fruit Program enrollees; $35 all others. Extra attendees from the same farm will only be charged $15 each to cover lunch. For more information and to pre-register, contact Robert Hadad or register online.
