Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The provision of food safety is nowadays one of the major imperatives for public authorities worldwide. The most recent food sanitary crisis (E.coli) has drawn attention to the strong interdependences among Economies with respect to food safety. Indeed, the sanitary risk for consumers in a given country also depends on food safety regulations developed beyond geographical borders. In addition, a sanitary crisis may cause revenue losses not only for the offending producers, but also for producers in countries that are not directly concerned. The major food sanitary crises of the nineties (BSE crisis, dioxin, salmonella, etc.) have resulted in both a tightening of public regulations and in the raising of private standards. Notably, European food safety regulation has been progressively strengthened (e.g. via the tightening of the maximum admitted levels of contaminants in agrifood products), with emphasis on the provision of safe imports from third countries. The strengthening of European legislation, justified by the necessity to assure European consumers’ health, has been source of controversial that relates to the wider debate on the sanitary/economic legitimacy of food safety regulation. Hence, developing countries (DC) often point at these regulations by considering that their successive strengthening, notably with respect to those set by the Codex Alimentarius, implies illegitimate restrictions to the access of their products to the European markets. Hence, a wide economic literature attempts shows that food safety norms may act as non-tariff barriers and significantly hinder developing countries’ exports. Given these premises, our Editorial Proposal addresses the issue of food safety regulation at international level, by focusing on the role of the supply chain structure and organization and on food chain actors’ strategies, and the related effects on both consumers’ health and developing countries’ access to the international market. Several factors, which are often neglected in existing studies, are taken into account as crucial determinants of both food safety regulation effectiveness and of developing countries’ access to the international market and, more in general, on international supply chains’ performance, such as structural and organizational characteristics of domestic production and export systems, downstream (commercialization and import stages) structure and organization, the nature on vertical relationship among upstream (DC’s producers/exporters) and downstream (importers, retailers) supply chain actors, and the role of the strategic behaviour of supply chain participants.

Download or read book Ensuring Safe Food written by Committee to Ensure Safe Food from Production to Consumption and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1998-09-02 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How safe is our food supply? Each year the media report what appears to be growing concern related to illness caused by the food consumed by Americans. These food borne illnesses are caused by pathogenic microorganisms, pesticide residues, and food additives. Recent actions taken at the federal, state, and local levels in response to the increase in reported incidences of food borne illnesses point to the need to evaluate the food safety system in the United States. This book assesses the effectiveness of the current food safety system and provides recommendations on changes needed to ensure an effective science-based food safety system. Ensuring Safe Food discusses such important issues as: What are the primary hazards associated with the food supply? What gaps exist in the current system for ensuring a safe food supply? What effects do trends in food consumption have on food safety? What is the impact of food preparation and handling practices in the home, in food services, or in production operations on the risk of food borne illnesses? What organizational changes in responsibility or oversight could be made to increase the effectiveness of the food safety system in the United States? Current concerns associated with microbiological, chemical, and physical hazards in the food supply are discussed. The book also considers how changes in technology and food processing might introduce new risks. Recommendations are made on steps for developing a coordinated, unified system for food safety. The book also highlights areas that need additional study. Ensuring Safe Food will be important for policymakers, food trade professionals, food producers, food processors, food researchers, public health professionals, and consumers.
Book Synopsis Food Safety Issues in the Developing World by : Laurian Unnevehr
Download or read book Food Safety Issues in the Developing World written by Laurian Unnevehr and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Food safety is receiving more attention worldwide with the rising incidence of foodborne disease, concern over new potential hazards, and growth in agricultural trade. Investments to improve food safety in developing countries can reduce the burden of disease and remove the barriers to fresh food product exports, providing another source of income for the rural sector. International disputes over sanitary and phytosanitary (SPS) measures influence the ability of developing countries to compete in export markets. These countries need to evaluate their interest in the SPS agreement under the World Trade Organisation (WTO); participate more fully in international agencies responsible for harmonisation; develop the capacity to assess equivalence for process standards, which are increasingly used for fresh food products; and resist the imposition of inappropriate standards.

Book Synopsis A review of best food safety practices: International experiences and lessons for Bangladesh by : Saak, Alexander E.
Download or read book A review of best food safety practices: International experiences and lessons for Bangladesh written by Saak, Alexander E. and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on 2019-01-03 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of this report is to identify best food safety practices that can inform policy makers in Bangladesh and other developing countries by examining and synthesizing experiences in food safety systems and regulation as well as producer and consumer behavior in low, middle, and high income countries. We begin by presenting the general objectives and principles of food safety regulation in countries with mature food safety systems. Then we review government food safety regulatory systems in Denmark and the U.S. to illustrate different approaches to organizing the implementation of food safety regulation. The food safety systems of both of these countries were updated within the past 20 years (Denmark in 1997 and the U.S. in 2011), and as a result the two systems incorporate modern best practices in food safety. The recent changes to U.S. food safety law are described in depth, as an example of a country updating a food safety system that was developed over 80 years ago based on modern principles. We conclude by summarizing the best practices and consider their potential to improve food safety in an emerging economy such as Bangladesh.
Book Synopsis Foods of Non-Animal Origin by : Arpan Bhagat
Download or read book Foods of Non-Animal Origin written by Arpan Bhagat and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-03-11 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Brief discusses aspects of the increasingly complex production of legal and reliable food products of non-animal origin. It introduces to the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) in the USA (from January 2011), which requires the food industry to follow risk-based approaches with stronger self-regulation of food safety through measures such as the foreign supplier verification programs (FSVPs). The Brief addresses important chemical hazards of vegetable products: their peculiar microbial ecology, that can become responsible for the occurrence of specific foodborne disease outbreaks, and the chemistry of the involved neurotoxins and other dangerous molecules, that can potentially lead to lethal pathological reactions. Finally, the Brief also critically discusses the technology of ready-to-eat vegetable products and chemical and physical modifications used for packed products (respiration of vegetables, colorimetric modifications, etc.).

Book Synopsis Regulating and Managing Food Safety in the EU by : Harry Bremmers
Download or read book Regulating and Managing Food Safety in the EU written by Harry Bremmers and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-08-01 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyses EU food law from a regulatory, economic and managerial perspective. It presents an economic assessment of strategies of food safety regulation, and discusses the different regulatory regimes in EU food law. It examines the challenges of food safety in the internal market as well as the regulatory tools that are available. The book’s generic theorising and measurement of regulatory effects is supplemented by detailed analysis of key topics in food markets, such as health claims, enforcement strategies, and induced risk management at the level of the organizations producing food. The regulatory effects discussed in the book range from classical regulatory analysis covering e.g. effects of ex-ante versus ex-post regulation and content-related versus information-related regulation to new regulatory options such as behavioral regulation. The book takes as its premise the idea that economic considerations are basic to the design and functioning of the European food supply arena, and that economic effects consolidate or induce modification of the present legal structures and principles. The assessments, analyses and examination of the various issues presented in the book serve to answer the question of how economic theory and practice can explain and enhance the shaping and modification of the regulatory framework that fosters safe and sustainable food supply chains.

Book Synopsis Risk and Food Safety in China and Japan by : Louis Augustin-Jean
Download or read book Risk and Food Safety in China and Japan written by Louis Augustin-Jean and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-03 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Around the world, food has probably never been as safe as it is today. However, periodic crises have aroused consumer anxiety and contributed to a general lack of confidence in the agro-industrial system. The diverse nature of these crises increases governments’ and industry difficulties in predicting and tackling them. This book addresses the relations between risk and food theoretically and empirically through case studies from Japan and China. Part I of the book examines the interaction between theoretical aspects and decision-making. The book theorizes the links between food and risk and analyses the decision-making process in light of risks and governance. The relationship between food risks, governance systems and economic decisions is assessed to explore ideas such as the "pact of nutrition" and the theory of weak signals. Part II examines case studies from China and Japan in the aftermaths of recent crises such as the milk powder scandal in China and food safety following the Fukushima nuclear accident and tsunami in Japan. This book will be an important resource for scholars, academics and policy-makers in the fields of sociology, economics, food studies, Chinese studies and Japanese studies and theories of risks and safety.

This book was released on 1999-11-17 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Highly publicised outbreaks of food-borne diseases have put food safety at the heart of a topical debate. Demands for increased food safety regulation and stricter enforcement have gained momentum. In fact, consumer concerns go well beyond basic food safety. The quality of food and how it is produced, animal welfare, the use of genetically modified organisms (GMOs), hormones and other growth promoters, cultural preferences, resource sustainability and protection of the environment have all become major issues in the public debate over regulation of the food industry. The issues are complex and the required policy response remains unclear. With the strengthening of international rules, increased trade in consumer food products and the growing use of biotechnology, trade conflicts over food regulatory issues and their reform could become more common. The economic stakes are high and such disputes are likely to remain a priority in the future trade agenda. This report examines the trade conflicts arising from food safety and quality issues. It summarises the key international agreements, illustrates the range and nature of current disputes, reviews the potential contributions of economic analysis to conflict resolution, and identifies areas requiring further analysis.
