Arizona LGMA Members To Use Updated Food Safety Practices for 2021–2022
The Arizona Leafy Green Marketing Agreement (LGMA) Food Safety Committee has approved changes made to the adjacent land use and soil amendments section of the food safety best practices to which all members must adhere. Changes will go into effect immediately and Arizona Department of Food and Agriculture auditors will begin verifying compliance in November 2021 when harvest starts for the 2021–2022 season.
The Arizona LGMA also announced support for leafy green shippers, growers, and harvest crews through training events and online resources.
