The PSA Grower Training Course is one way to satisfy the FSMA Produce Safety Rule requirement for produce growers that requires ‘At least one supervisor or responsible party for your farm must have successfully completed food safety training at least equivalent to that received under standardized curriculum recognized as adequate by the Food and Drug Administration.’\nWhat to Expect at the PSA Grower Training Course? \nThe trainers will cover content contained in these eight modules:\n• Introduction to Produce Safety\n• Worker Health\, Hygiene\, and Training\n• Soil Amendments\n• Wildlife\, Domesticated Animals\, and Land Use\n• Agricultural Water (Part I: Production Water; Part II: Postharvest Water)\n• Postharvest Handling and Sanitation\n• How to Develop a Farm Food Safety Plan\n• Role of MD Dept. of Agriculture and On-Farm Readiness Reviews \nIn addition to learning about produce safety best practices\, key parts of the FSMA Produce Safety Rule requirements are outlined within each module. There will be time for questions and discussion\, so participants should come prepared to share their experiences and produce safety questions. Appropriate time will be made for breaks at the discretion of the instructors. \nParticipants will only be eligible for the PSA/AFDO Certificate of Course Completion if they are present for all modules of the course. \nFunding for this course was made possible\, in part\, by the Food and Drug Administration through grant PAR-16-137.
