What are other sectors doing in on-farm food safety?
Verified Beef Production (VBP) is part of a broad, global trend in food production, both in Canada and internationally, toward verified food safety standards.
This includes many on-farm food safety management programs in different sectors of food production implemented in Canada and major food production countries around the world.
One driving force is that processors in have implemented mandatory "HAACP-based" programs in North America. HACCP stands for Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points - an international quality control program used widely in many industries. As part of their programs, these processors are aiming to source raw products / inputs from sources that have implemented HACCP-based on-farm food safety programs such as VBP.
The Links page of this Web site includes links to information on provincial VBP programs, other national on-farm food safety programs and several international programs. These examples represent only a small portion of the many programs for verified food safety standards now implemented around the globe and increasing every year.
