FDA’s Pesticide Program
Most people know pesticides protect growing crops from insect consumption, but did you realize pesticides are used on many other types of food, including dairy and shellfish?
The FDA hosted a webinar “FDA’s Pesticide Program”, on Thursday, August 30, 2012 at 2:00 PM ET. The featured speaker was Capt. Young H. Lee, Ph.D, Office of Food Safety liaison to the Pesticide Monitoring Program at FDA’s Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition. This webinar presented FDA’s rules and regulations for pesticide use, and its effect on the consumer.

This program has evolved continuously as evidenced by a number of recently incorporated modifications and initiatives. Included are greater emphasis on imports; increased and more specific targeting of pesticide/commodity combinations by geographic area or country.
Hi dude, really like this concept. I did not know much more about FDA’s Pesticide Program because I did not read this issue from any source yet but the allocation you did here makes me knowable about this issue. Thanks dude.
This is my first time i heard about pesticides used in dairy food product.Thanks.
The pesticides that end up on our table …I don’t really like that.
