This course will enable Extension
professionals to teach
consumers about:
-
how specific food products
are created and how they
move through the food
system;
-
how our government
protects against threats
to the U.S. food system:
-
food-related actions your
family can take to prepare
for any type of disaster
or emergency;
-
what consumers and
agricultural producers can
do to protect against
intentional threats to our
food system; and
-
lessons learned from
actual cases of
intentional attacks on our
food systems.
