EM in agriculture and food
  • In addition to protecting against acts of
    terrorism, agrosecurity is just plain good
    management.
  • A biosecure facility will have fewer disease
    introductions, healthier animals and crops, fewer
    problems with unintentional contamination and
    consequently greater profits.
