Food & Agriculture

Nutrition

Consumers have a right to access food that is not only safe, but nutritious and healthy as well. CFA promotes policies to encourage production and marketing of healthier foods; increase the emphasis in both public and private programs on improving nutrition and reducing childhood obesity; and expand and improve programs to reduce hunger. CFA also supports accurate and truthful labeling to provide consumers with sufficient information to make informed choices in the marketplace.
