Why One Should Observe Food Safety Consulting

By Elsa English


The society of today face challenges from numerous lifestyle ailments which have resulted from consuming of farm produces which have gone through numerous inorganic processing. As a result of this, concerns have been raised for setting up of measures to see to food safety consulting on farmers so as to grow natural farm products.

The recently practiced agriculture has aided in the rise of drug resistant pathogens in humans. This has resulted to its attack by medical society and consequently the general public. The most recent severe attack was eminent on the writings of director general of WHO whereby he put it that the drug resilient bacteria get transmitted through a food chain into the consumer.

It is true that food has never attained safe standards as today but the awareness of the risks contained in unsafe foods creates the likelihood of more risks than ever. The general recognition has received major support from the mass media. The risks are mainly posed by pathogens, hormones and antimicrobial and residues from chemicals.

New consumer demand has been satisfied by production and availing naturally products which have no hormones as well as antibiotics. This has acted as a safety measure. This however has had a negative impact on the farm products as people are losing trust on them, such products are those that have no label showing safety or high quality. There has been trade barriers set internationally on the products that are not up to standard in reference to importing country.

There has also been a rise in tendency by the consumers to demand for agricultural outputs which are fresher and naturally grown. This has resulted to rise in consumption of unprocessed or minimally processed products rather than those that have undergone many stages in processing before getting into the market. The fresher the produce is, the safer the consumer is from pathogens and contaminants coming from raw materials.

The mandatory inspection is still indispensable though it has failed to control and prevent emerging pathogens that are food borne and pose risk to human health. Looking at meat for example, in the past, diseases like brucellosis and tuberculosis caused clinical diseases which could be observed at farm levels and lesion that would be recognized during meat inspection. The modern pathogens like toxoplasma are detectable only via targeted monitoring systems as they do not show clinical symptoms.

Quality control checks have been placed where necessary in order to allocate quality categories on products before introducing them to markets. Due to lack of methods of correcting or upgrading final outputs, the products with high quality will be expensive while the lower products will sell cheaply. The cost on production of every quality being even, it turns to be wise to set on ways of minimizing losses.

Given the above, it turns to be prudent to look for consultations regarding food safety so as to ensure health problems are reduced while also making you be at a good position to make good profits. For consultations, you can attend seminars or visit agricultural institutes for further knowledge on how to farm in an organic manner.
