This course examines how agriculture addresses food issues with regard to safety, quality, security, biosecurity, and defense. Students will learn how agricultural policy, practices, and human resource management play key roles in these issues by understanding how they work and fit into related on-farm programs used today. Current industry and government recognized programs across all types of commodities, where available, will be used throughout the course to showcase the principles and methods used to control the risks associated with these issues. Actual case studies, field trips, and labs will be used to provide some hands-on experience where possible. Audit preparation and skills will also be introduced to help the future farm manager or auditor prepare for an audit experience in any of these areas.
