Meat/Poultry Inspection

Consumers require modern meat inspection systems in order to ensure that the meat and poultry they eat and feed to their families is safe. CFA promotes policies to strengthen and reform outdated meat and poultry inspection systems, such as enhanced testing requirements, stronger enforcement of safety standards, and steps to eliminate or minimize pathogens in meat and poultry products.
