BACKGROUND ON GUIDELINE REVISIONS

Since the inception of the California and Arizona Leafy Green Marketing Agreements, Western Growers has been at the forefront of developing and revising the written “Commodity Specific Food Safety Guidelines for the Production and Harvest of Lettuce and Leafy Greens” for the leafy greens industry in both states.

Western Growers supports the continuous improvement of the LGMA-approved leafy green food safety guidelines and maintains a Master Calendar to facilitate a systematic amendment process.
