  • As part of FDA’s New Era of Smarter Food Safety, we’ve just completed a comprehensive literature review on food safety culture. I encourage you to read it and, more importantly, apply it to your work & put these principles into practice.

@SecVilsack

  • We know agriculture is uniquely positioned to make a difference against climate change. That’s why we’ve created the Partnerships for Climate-Smart Commodities funding opportunity — and invested $3.1 billion in producer-led, incentive-based pilot projects.
