Which types of farms are regulated under current FDA laws?
(updated 21Oct2009) FDA regulates the activities of food facilities except those handling and processing meat and poultry. Additionally the FDA regulates the activities of seafood processing facilities, though not aquaculture ponds. Those types of facilities not regulated by FDA are regulated by USDA’s FSIS (Food Safety Inspection Services), a department under APHIS (Animal Plant Health Inspection Services).
