On March 5, initial findings from a new California study examining ways to improve produce safety—particularly on the Central Coast—were unveiled. The multi-year study was conducted by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in partnership with the Western Center for Food Safety at the University of California, Davis, the California Department of Food and Agriculture, and agricultural stakeholders across the region.
Central Coast cattle ranchers are among those stakeholders. In this episode, we are joined by Jack Rice, owner of Western Resource Strategies LLC, to discuss why ranchers have a seat at the table, how this collaborative study came together, and his takeaways from the newly released findings.
