SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Issues of food safety related to wildlife are discussed from a growers' perspective. We describe how the "Metrics" are implemented, from an agricultural producer's perspective, and how buyers' decisions influence field practices related to wildlife management. Growers are working together within the current requirements, so that agricultural producers can continue to market products while remaining committed to environmental stewardship and conservation, and to high standards of food safety.
