Research Priorities for Coordinating Management of Food Safety and Water Quality

Abstract: Eff orts to exclude disease organisms from farms growing irrigated lettuce and leafy vegetables on California's central coast are confl icting with traditionally accepted strategies to protect surface water quality. To begin resolving this dilemma, over 100 offi cials, researchers, and industry representatives gathered in April 2007 to set research priorities that could lead to eff ective co-management of both food safety and water quality. Following the meeting, research priorities were refi ned and ordered b… Show more

“…Unless we understand these complex feedbacks, we will not be able to mitigate change or adapt to it. Management recommendations driven solely by considerations from nutritional ecology or public health may have hidden costs at the ecosystem level (Crohn and Bianchi 2008). To cite an example involving chemical ecology, solving food-toxicity problems by developing allelochemical-free crop plants could increase their susceptibility to pests and pathogens and increase our dependence on synthetic pesticides (Katz 1990;Kliebenstein 2009;McKey and Beckerman 1993;Nhassico et al 2008;Riis et al 2003a, b).…”

“…Further, emerging evidence suggests that removal of non-crop vegetation fails to reduce, and may even increase, pathogen prevalence on leafy-green vegetable farms in the California Central Coast , while degrading important ecosystem benefits such as natural pest control services (Letourneau et al 2015, Karp et al 2016). Removing vegetation is expensive and at times conflicts with landowners' acknowledged environmental stewardship responsibilities (Crohn and Bianchi 2008;Gennet et al 2013;Hardesty and Kusunose 2009;Stuart 2009). Furthermore, such approaches may conflict with California's regulatory targets for surface water quality.…”

“…Agri-food agencies, scientists, and other stakeholders have been concurrently investing considerable efforts, both globally and locally, to map-out and prioritize research in microbial food safety of vegetables using primarily expert-based opinions or research reviews (Crohn & Bianchi, 2008; European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), 2010; FAO, WHO, 2008), and various informal to semiformal ranking tools to aid prioritization process and action plan in this area. Numerous primary research (Francis & O'Beirne, 2001;Loncarevic, Johannessen, & Rorvik, 2005;Sagoo, Little, & Mitchell, 2003) and narrative review articles have been published over the past two decades addressing various aspects of microbial contamination and control of different microbial hazards in produce throughout the farm-to-table continuum (Delaquis, Bach, & Dinu, 2007;Franz & van Bruggen, 2008;Hanning, Johnson, & Ricke, 2008;Holden, Pritchard, & Toth, 2009).…”
