Description

Officials continue to assert that the U.S. food supply, including the portion imported, is among the safest in the world. One challenge has been the steady increase in imports, a result of globalisation and consumer desire for a wider variety of foods year-round. With this growth have come new concerns about whether current federal programs sufficiently ensure the safety of these imports. This new and important book examines the current issues and trends in global agricultural imports today.
