Furthermore, from 1980 to 2004, the global production per annum of fruit and vegetables grew by 94% and they are a critical component of a healthy diet. Reported outbreaks associated with leafy vegetables and herbs have been notable for the wide geographical distribution of the contaminated products, the high numbers of consumers exposed and thus the large number of cases. This meeting addressed the pathways for contamination, survival and persistence of microbiological hazards associated with leafy vegetables and herbs, and the potential management options from primary production through to the consumer.--Publisher's description. 410 0$aMicrobiological risk assessment series ;$v14. 606 $aEdible greens$vCongresses 606 $aHerbs$vCongresses 606 $aFood contamination$xRisk assessment$vCongresses 606 $aFood$xMicrobiology$vCongresses 615 0$aEdible greens 615 0$aHerbs 615 0$aFood contamination$xRisk assessment 615 0$aFood$xMicrobiology 676 $a664.001579 712 02$aFood and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. 712 02$aWorld Health Organization. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910780916903321 996 $aMicrobiological hazards in fresh leafy vegetables and herbs$93756851 997 $aUNINA
