Who is affected by the food hygiene regulations?
The EU Food Hygiene Regulations, in force since 1 January 2006, extended the ‘farm to fork’ approach to food safety legislation and apply to food businesses throughout the supply chain. This now includes farmers and growers, in many cases for the first time. A link to general information on the food hygiene legislation can be found below. A leaflet about food and feed hygiene on farms is available – please note that it reflects the situation before 1 January 2006, but still contains much useful information.
