  • Country of Origin Labeling
    On May 13, 2002, President Bush signed into law the Farm Security and Rural Investment Act of 2002, more commonly known as the 2002 Farm Bill. One of its many initiatives requires country of origin labeling for beef, lamb, pork, fish, perishable agricultural commodities and peanuts. As described in the legislation, program implementation is the responsibility of USDA's Agricultural Marketing Service.
  • EAN International The Traceability Challenge
    As of January 2005, traceability will be a legal obligation in the European food sector. Regulation (EC) No 178/2002 defines traceability as the ability to trace and follow a food, feed, food-producing animal or substance intended to be or expected to be incorporated into a food or feed in all stages of production, processing or distribution. In practice, this requires all food and feed business operators to have systems in place to identify from whom they have received a food or feed and to whom they sold a food or feed (one step back and one step forward).
