Publisher's Synopsis
The Farm Plan translates technical regulations into step-by-step common sense. Many farmers react to the highly technical presentation of food safety with irritation and insult. The Farm Plan, developed by a farmer who felt this very same irritation, fixed it by translating the rules into every day language, organizing each food safety task into a farmer's work day and putting short, practical instructions on nearly every page. The Farm Plan painlessly teaches the rules while checklists lead the way. Clear, common sense instructions tell you how, when, why, who, and where. Extensive food safety training guides each step to your Global Gap audit. Farm management plans are included to cover many situations that may arise on the farm. As you fill in a few blanks each plan is personalized for your farm. The Filing System checklist gathers the documents. The Farm Checklist is a detailed guide to the requirements around the farm. You'll see how all the pieces of food safety connect through the filing system as it gathers documents. The Farm Plan is written and designed by a farmer, for farmers. The Farm Plan is the right plan for fruit and vegetable farms of all sizes. Large farms will order one book for each farm management site.
