Welcome to the Food Safety Consortium
- The Food Safety Consortium consists of researchers from the University of Arkansas, Iowa State University and Kansas State University.
..
- The Consortium was established by Congress in 1988 through a special Cooperative State Research Service grant.
....
- The Consortium's charge is to conduct extensive investigation into all areas of poultry, beef and pork meat production, from the farm to the consumer's table.
....
- Each of the university
members of the Consortium is primarily performing research associated
with the specific animal species for which that university is uniquely
qualified: University of Arkansas, poultry; Iowa State University, pork;
and Kansas State University, beef.
....
- Research projects are also coordinated with scientists at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences and Arkansas Children's Hospital.
