The zoonotic potential of foodborne infections, as well as their capacity to secrete toxins that cause a threat to global food safety and nutrition security and is enough to highlight the gravity of the problem. Feeding the estimated world population of 8.4–8.7 billion, 9.4–10.2 billion, and 11 billion people by 2030, 2050, and 2100, respectively, will require significant increases in crop and animal production, which will increase the agricultural use of antibiotics, water and pesticides and fertilisers, and contact between humans, wild and domestic animals, all of which will have implications for the emergence and spread of infectious agents. Hence, Infectious foodborne zoonotic illnesses are spreading at an unprecedented rate over the world. The evidence that animals are carriers of foodborne diseases is examined in this chapter. The processes through which infectious foodborne zoonosis impacts the global food and nutrition security, as well as how human infectious illnesses may affect food production and distribution are synthesised. The need for agricultural and disease management and policy activities, as well as a review of recent research on novel detection and control techniques in addressing the public health threat posed by foodborne Zoonotic illness, is also addressed.
