Program Summary The Alabama Produce Program will not only help to sustain the produce industry but will assist Alabama producers in growing the industry in the face of regulations and evolving market expectations by aiding produce farms of all sizes and stages of development to meet food safety requirements, access markets, and promote public health as sustainable agricultural businesses. By focusing on outreach and education, technical assistance as well as compliance, our program will assist all growers to adopt and implement on-farm food safety practices, furthering the Food Safety Modernization Act's vision of preventing foodborne illness. Continued assessment of the produce landscape in Alabama while focusing on produce covered under the PSR and determining continued need of resources will be instrumental incontinued implementation of the produce program. With farm inventory being the basis for the program planning, establishing a complete and accurate inventory of produce farms will assist in implementing corresponding objectives inthe CAP program. Maintaining the current inspection program inplace so that ADAI is working together with all produce programs nationwide in an integrated way to achieve our public health goals. By working together nationally, ADAI will focus on quality and consistency in developing and updating SOPs related to inspection program. ADAI will work to prioritize inspections according to produce safety inspections assignment by using the PDAT tool and 'WinWam software to pull the data needed to prioritizing inspections. Continued development of ADAls compliance and enforcement program will be tailored to Program Path C and the objective guidance provided by FDA. ADAI will utilize written procedures for conducting compliance and enforcement activities that establish a risk-based process to determine when a directed investigation, follow-up or re-inspection is needed.
