Be ready: The arrival of fall raises the threat of an avian influenza outbreak

By Dr. Louise Dufour-Zavala
The USDA Animal and Plant Inspection Service announced on Aug. 26 that Highly Pathogenic H5N2 avian influenza was confirmed in a wild mallard duck from a state wildlife refuge in Alaska. The last time this virus was found in the U.S. was in June 2015, months after triggering the most devastating outbreak of a foreign animal disease in U.S. history.
The avian influenza viruses are known to be present in wild waterfowl, where they usually do not cause disease. When these viruses infect gallinaceous birds notably chickens and turkeys they can adapt and cause severe illness leading to very important losses to the flocks and the industry.
This new finding of the disease in a mallard duck tells us that the H5N2 virus of Eurasian lineage still circulates in waterfowl. In the spring these birds migrate north from

America, Europe and Asia toward their common breeding grounds in Siberia and Alaska. While there they comingle and infect each other. In the fall, they fly back south towards Eurasia and the continental U.S., carrying the virus with them.
Following the outbreak of 2015 that affected 19 states, but hit Minnesota and Iowa especially hard, Georgia's prevention and preparation efforts kicked into high gear. During the late summer and fall of 2015, grower meetings made everyone aware of the threat.

The Georgia Poultry Federation's "All In or All Gone" campaign was launched on the internet and by email and text messages.
The campaign resulted in Georgia flocks being better protected and more biosecure. Growers and companies concentrated on establishing entry biosecurity procedures as well as visitor, equipment and vehicle protocols on all farms and poultry premises. The campaign made them more aware of risky behaviors such as waterfowl hunting and contact with pond water.
In January of 2016, turkey flocks were again infected in Indiana, but with a different virus, this one of North American lineage (H7N8). That outbreak was quickly stamped out. There have been no outbreaks since then, but the August duck finding is a harsh reminder that the threat is still present. This mallard was a hunter kill, and part of a flock of birds that may migrate down any of the four U.S. flyways.

Please remember to: Watch your flock. Report any signs of
avian influenza: high mortality; severe depression; neurological signs; dark legs, combs and wattles; silent chickens. Do not have any contact with wild birds or waterfowl (hunting, taxidermy, bird houses on farm). Clean up feed spills or anything that attracts wild birds. Bird-proof your houses. Do not let wild birds nest in your chicken houses. Assume the exteriors of your houses are contaminated. Keep doors closed. Establish a line of separation between the inside and the outside of the chicken house: growers, all visitors and all employees should wear disposable, dedicated footwear or use well maintained foot paths upon entrance to the chicken house all the time. Allow essential visitors only. All visitors

Subway restaurants in Georgia buy more lar restaurants in the country," Wilson said.

Gary Davis, a long-time Subway owner in Statesboro, said he's happy to be able to promote the company's relationship with local farmers.
"As local business owners, we are proud to support Georgia farmers and the local economy while giving our customers high quality, fresh ingredients," Davis said. The Subway chain began in 1965 in Connecticut and has grown to include more than 44,000 locations worldwide. The company has built its name on offering "better-for-you" sandwiches with fresh vegetable toppings. "We appreciate Subway's local owners working to give consumers what they want and supporting local farmers who offer wholesome, local products produced right here in Georgia," said Agriculture Commissioner Gary W. Black.

Food safety fur-ever:

`People food' can be hazardous to your pet's health

Mail to: Published by the Ga. Department of Agriculture Gary W. Black, Commissioner

By Sydney Brogden
Sharing food with our pets often seems like an act of love. They might be following you around, looking at you with those big puppydog eyes, and begging you to share just a bite of your meal or snack. How can you say no to that face?
Giving in to their yearning, you absentmindedly toss them some scraps of human food. However, this seemingly innocent act may have severe, potentially life-threatening consequences for your four-legged companion. It is important to keep in mind not all food that is safe for human consumption is safe for animals.
Knowing which foods dogs and cats should not eat helps keep them safe from harmful side effects that certain human foods can have on animals. Here are some of the main foods pets should avoid:
Alcohol: It can cause vomiting, diarrhea, loss of coordination, difficulty breathing, and coma. In extreme cases it can lead to death.

Chocolate: Because it contains methylxanthines, chocolate can cause vomiting, diarrhea, panting, excessive thirst, seizure and death. There are a variety of factors that influence chocolate toxicity, including the size of your pet, how much chocolate your pet ate and what kind of chocolate was consumed. Baker's and dark chocolates have high levels of methylxanthines, causing them to be the most dangerous, while white chocolate contains the lowest levels.
Grapes and raisins: Not much is known about what causes grapes to be toxic to dogs, but in some dogs they can cause kidney failure. While not all dogs are affected, owners should be aware. Is it really worth the risk?
Onions, garlic and chives: Cats are usually picky eaters, so cat owners do not have to worry as much about their cats getting into foods they shouldn't. However, onions, garlic and chives are quite toxic to both cats and dogs. These food items can cause gastrointestinal irritation and can lead to damage of red blood cells. Symptoms-

Callaway Plantation in Washington hosts "Mule Day" Oct. 8

Callaway Plantation, a 56-acre historic site in Northeast Georgia, will host the Washington-Wilkes Chamber of Commerce's 36th

annual Mule Day celebration of rural farm life Oct. 8.
For two centuries, the mule was the "trac-

tor" for Georgia farmers. Mule Day offers a glimpse of the role mules played in daily life. There will be mule plowing contests and a mule show with cash prizes. Throughout the day demonstrators will show how farms produced their own turpentine, wood shingles, pine straw baskets, soap and more. A blacksmith will demonstrate how horse shoes and nails were made.
Callaway Plantation is a fully restored example of an early Georgia farm. Its collection of restored farm buildings and houses reflects the progression of the agrarian South from the 1700s through the 1900s. Callaway Plantation started with a log cabin built by Job Callaway in 1785. By the 1860s, the farm had grown into a 3,000-acre working plantation, complete with a brick mansion.
Gifted to the city of Washington by the Callaway family, the property is now home to six unique historic structures open for public tours: the Log Cabin (1785), the Grey House (1790), the Gilmer House (1800), the Dally Slave Cabin (1840), a one-room school house (1891), and a general store (1930).
On Mule Day, members of the Northeast

Georgia Living Historians will model period costumes appropriate to each era. Several hands-on activities will be offered for children, such as mule plowing, rope making and weaving on a loom. There will also be a petting zoo and pony rides.
David Russell of Washington, who was featured on PBS's "The Woodwright's Shop," will demonstrate the lost art of cornhusk weaving. Musicians will play the mandolin, fiddle and other primitive instruments throughout the day. The sheep dog herder, a popular attraction in the past, will return to the festival this year. Food and arts and crafts will be available for purchase from vendors from around the Southeast. An exhibit of antique cars and vintage tractors will also be on display. New to the festival is a live performance of old-time bluegrass music by the band Border Hop Trio at 2 p.m.
The festival lasts from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. Admission is $10 per car. For more information, call 706.678.2013 or visit www. WashingtonWilkes.org.

Department of Agriculture is accepting applications

for Dog and Cat Sterilization Grant Program

Georgia Department of Agriculture Commissioner Gary W. Black announced the availability of $450,000 in grants to fund spay and neuter surgeries on Georgia's companion animals. This is the largest amount offered since the Dog and Cat Sterilization Program was launched in 2013.
"Often local communities have citizens who are burdened by the high cost of surgery to spay or neuter their pets," Black said. "This grant will target and aid these communities across Georgia by keeping strays off the street and controlling the animal population in a humane manner."
Since its inception, the Dog and Cat Sterilization Program has been utilized to sexually alter more than 100,000 companion animals. The funds for these procedures are obtained from the sale of specialty vehicle tags, the income tax check-off, and direct contributions to the program.

The Dog and Cat Sterilization Grant Program was established in 2013 to allow for state licensed animal shelters and licensed animal rescue organizations with 501(c)(3) status to apply for grants from the program. This year the rules have been amended to allow veterinary associations with 501(c)(3) status to also apply. In the first two rounds of grants, $325,000 was awarded to 60 organizations.
Grants will be based on the highest priority after considering factors such as targeting of important animal populations, ability to increase surgery numbers, cost-benefit ratio, record of grant applicant, and sustainability.
Applicants must reside in Georgia and all procedures must be performed by licensed and accredited Georgia veterinarians. Applications must be submitted by close of business (4:30 p.m.) on Oct. 9. Download an application from the department's website, www.agr.georgia.gov, or

call 404.656.4914 to request one. Submit applications to: Georgia Department of Agriculture Dog and Cat Sterilization Program 19 Martin Luther King Jr. Dr., S.W. Room 122 Atlanta, GA 30334 For more information or to make a tax-exempt dona-
tion to Georgia's Dog and Cat Sterilization Program, visit http://agr.georgia.gov/dog-cat-sterilization-program.aspx, or call 404.656.4914.

Add orange juice and zest. Bring to a boil, then lower to simmer. Cook until thick enough to coat a spoon, about 10 minutes.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Combine all ingredients for chicken meatballs in a bowl. Scoop or spoon 1 teaspoon of chicken mixture and roll into a ball. Repeat with all of the chicken. Place on a baking sheet and bake about 10 minutes. Internal temperature should be 170 degrees.
Put into a bowl and toss with muscadine glaze. Serve as hors d'oeuvres with toothpicks or serve for dinner with rice and a vegetable.

Arty's Garden:
An interesting vine with, I hope, an interesting future

By Arty Schronce

Children of the corn
Dale Thompson of Sylvania is known for his love of helping others and for his love of gardening. Every summer he mixes the two together by feeding his family and many others with the produce from his garden.
This year he sowed Hickory King corn, a variety dating back to the 1800s. Hickory King grows to a height of about 12 feet, and each stalk produces two ears with very large, flat, white kernels. The husks are tighter than most varieties and protect the ears from beetles and earworm. Old-timers planted Hickory King with pole beans. The bean stalks climbed the corn and used the stalks for support.
Thompson plans to use his harvest to show his grandchildren how corn is ground into grits and corn meal. The corn will be dried, hand-shelled and taken to the grist mill this fall. Pictured in front of the corn are four of Thompson's grandchildren: Jala and Jones Baxley, ages 7 and 5, and Wyatt and Whitley Thompson, ages 4 and 2. (Photo submitted by Aubrey Baxley)

should wear protective clothing. Control insects and rodents at all times. No pets inside the chicken houses. Use a sign-in log for all visitors, all pick-ups and deliveries. Dispose of all mortality in an approved manner.
For non-commercial and backyard poultry owners, Georgia has an AI hotline. If you think your flock has influenza, please call 770.766.6850. Visit the GDA (agr.georgia.gov) or the USDA APHIS (aphis.usda.gov) websites for more information about avian influenza.
We are all in this together in Georgia. Biosecurity is for all of us, all the time. There are no breaks. There is no reason to stop. Biosecurity is your everyday seat belt. Please wear it.
All in. All the time. -Dr. Louise Dufour-Zavala is executive director of the Georgia Poultry Laboratory Net-
work based in Gainesville.

In gardening, as in many other aspects

of life, I find myself gravitating toward the

odd and the overlooked. So it was natural

that Apios americana (formerly listed as

Apios tuberosa) would catch my attention.

It is a rarely grown perennial vine that

is a member of the bean/pea family and is

native from eastern Canada and the Upper

Midwest to Florida and Texas. It is known

by several common names including

hopniss, groundnut (the most frequently en-

countered name), Indian potato and potato

bean. I like the name "hopniss" because it The flowers of hopniss, or groundnut, are unusual

derived from an American Indian name and in both color and fragrance.

is not confusing the way the others can be.

For example, "groundnuts" are peanuts in some parts of the world, and the vine is unrelated

to both sweet potatoes and Irish potatoes.

Hopniss flowers are not brightly colored or showy. If people notice them they often com-

ment on their curious color. Mine are a combination of brownish purple and fleshy beige.

That may sound unappealing, but the flowers are subtly attractive.

Fragrance can be subjective. Some people like the fragrance of hopniss flowers and some

do not. Most agree it is unusual. It is not overpowering, and at its strongest reminds me of

the Creomulsion Cough Syrup I took as a child medicinal and molasses-like. At times the

fragrance is like a hay-filled horse barn. There is a sweet earthiness to it. It is not a gardenia,

but I like it.

The vine produces tubers that look like brown-skinned mini sweet potatoes on a string.

They were used by Native Americans and colonists for food. There are numerous mentions

in American history of hopniss being eaten, but the plant was never developed and improved

as a crop. Henry David Thoreau wrote about his experiences with hopniss at Walden Pond.

He recorded they have "a sweetish taste, much like that of a frost-bitten potato," and he

found them "better boiled than roasted." Others disagree with Thoreau and say that boil-

ing the tubers can leave a glue-like residue on pots. In Stalking the Wild Asparagus, Euell

Gibbons wrote that he had enjoyed the tubers sliced thin and fried in bacon fat. I pulled up

a vine and followed Euell's advice but substituted canola oil. They were tasty as homemade

potato chips, and I didn't even bother to add salt. I want more, and I want to try them boiled

and roasted too.

With any new food especially one that has not been widely eaten or studied and may

vary in its palatability and chemical makeup among different strains it is best to research

and proceed with caution to see how you react to it before you consume a large quantity.

As a garden plant, hopniss can spread readily, popping up where you may not want it and

twining into shrubs and perennials where it is hard to remove. If you want to grow it in your

garden, try it in a large pot or barrel or in an area off by itself. It is easy to grow from seeds

but is not readily available in the nursery industry.

With breeding and selection, perhaps this interesting plant will one day produce more and

larger tubers and become a domesticated food crop. Hopniss is a legume and would nour-

ish the soil. The leaves could possibly be a

forage crop. Since it is a perennial, it could

possibly be harvested at any time of year

and replanted at the same time, perhaps

in midwinter when other crops are not

demanding attention. These are all things

for the agronomists and university scientists

to explore. Gardeners like me can simply

marvel over this odd flowering vine and

hope that one day the overlooked hopniss

will assume a place of honor along with

corn, pecans, muscadines and other New

Food safety fur-ever: Educate friends, family and caregivers about the dangers

Continued From Page 1

from eating garlic and onions can be delayed, so even if you do not notice anything right away, your pet could still get sick. Raw/uncooked meat: Feeding your dog raw meat may seem instinctive. It is what dogs would eat if they lived in the wild, right? However, raw meat can be just as harmful to dogs as it is to humans. Salmonella and E. coli are foodborne illness-causing bacteria that can affect your pets, as well as you. Additionally, bones can get lodged in a pet's throat or tear up the throat and intestines. Xylitol: If consumed, this sugar substitute can be lifethreatening for pets. Xylitol is a sweetener commonly used in sugar-free gum and candy, mouthwash and even some varieties of peanut butter. Since peanut butter is a protein-rich snack commonly fed to dogs, double check

to make sure it is xylitol-free before feeding it to your furry friends.
It is important to ensure that not only pet owners but also family, friends and pet sitters avoid giving your furry friends these foods. And since pets can be quite curious, make sure that harmful foods are moved out of a pet's reach including countertops and trash cans when they are left to their own devices in the home.
If you suspect your pet has eaten a potentially hazardous food and is showing symptoms of distress, you should immediately contact your veterinarian or take your pet to an emergency animal hospital. The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals also offers an Animal Poison Control Center you can contact at 888.426.4435.

Notice of Public HeariNg

Pursuant to the Official Code of Georgia Annotated, O.C.G.A. 2-7-204 and 50-134, notice is hereby given that the Georgia Department of Agriculture will be holding a public hearing regarding the adoption of new Chapter 40-13-15 entitled "Transportation and Holding of Live Feral Hogs." Said hearing will be held on Tuesday, Sept. 20, 2016, at 1 p.m. at the Macon State Farmers Market, located at 2055 Eisenhower Pkwy, Macon, GA 31206. The Department previously accepted written comments regarding the proposed rules, and will hereby extend the opportunity to submit written comments from Aug. 19, 2016, to close of business (4:30 p.m. EST) on Sept. 19, 2016.
SYNOPSIS, MAIN FEATURES AND DIFFERENCES The Department is proposing to adopt a new Chapter, 40-13-15, entitled "Transportation and Holding of Live Feral Hogs," which is necessary to administer O.C.G.A. 2-7-200 et. seq. Proposed Rule 40-13-15-.01 entitled "Definitions" would provide definitions for "Feral Hog" and "Taken." Said definitions would be the same as provided in O.C.G.A. 27-2-1. Proposed Rule 40-13-15-.02 entitled "Applicability of Rules" would establish that these rules apply to the transportation and holding of live feral hogs within the State of Georgia. Proposed Rule 40-13-15-.03 entitled "Transportation of Live Feral Hogs" would provide that no person shall transport live feral hogs in Georgia without having a valid Feral Hog Transport Permit and that live feral hogs shall only be transported to approved slaughter facilities, licensed Feral Hog Facilities, or other premises for immediate personal consumption unless a special written exemption is obtained from the State Veterinarian. This proposed rule would also establish additional requirements for the transportation of live feral hogs including, but not limited to: premises registration for carriers and conveyance used to transport live feral hogs, sanitation requirements for carriers and conveyances used to transport live feral hogs, and Department approved ear-tags on all live feral hogs transported. Proposed Rule 40-13-15-.04 entitled "Feral Hog Transport Permit" would establish the procedure for obtaining, and requirements for maintaining, a Feral Hog Transport Permit. This rule would provide that, among other things, the permit application shall be made online at the Department's website, would provide that the permit is valid upon the date of issuance and expires annually on Sept. 30, would provide that the annual permit fee is $15 and shall be remitted before the permit is issued or renewed, would provide that the permit is valid only for the applicant stated on the permit and is not transferable, would provide that the permit must be carried on the person of the permit holder at all times during transportation of live feral hogs, and would provide that the holder of the permit must maintain complete and legible records on all feral hogs transported by the permit holder for three (3) consecutive years. Proposed Rule 40-13-15-.05 entitled "Feral Hog Facility Requirements" would provide that a license is required for the operation of a Feral Hog Facility which holds live feral hogs. This proposed rule would also require premises registration for all physical locations where live feral hogs are held, would provide that any operator of a licensed Feral Hog Facility who intends to personally transport live feral

hogs is required to obtain and maintain a Feral Hog Transport Permit, would provide that live feral hogs held at a licensed Feral Hog Facility may only be transported to approved slaughter facilities, other licensed Feral Hog Facilities, or for immediate personal consumption unless a special written exemption is obtained from the State Veterinarian prior to transport, would establish official brucellosis and pseudorabies testing requirements, would establish fencing requirements, would require that live feral hogs be maintained in secure escape-proof pens, would reiterate that it is unlawful for any person to accidentally or intentionally release a live feral hog, require that all live feral hogs shall have a Georgia Department of Agriculture approved ear-tag, would provide that feral hogs held at a licensed Feral Hog Facility shall not be permitted to breed, would provide that all boars shall be castrated or maintained in separate confinement from female hogs until castration, and would provide that all progeny of female swine bred prior to introduction to the facility be held and treated in accordance with these rules. Proposed Rule 40-13-15-.06 entitled "Feral Hog Facility License" would establish the procedure for obtaining, and requirements for maintaining, a Feral Hog Facility License. This rule would provide that, among other things, the license application shall be made online at the Department's website, would provide that the license is valid upon the date of issuance and expires annually on Sept. 30, would provide that the annual license fee is $100 and shall be remitted before the license is issued or renewed, would provide that the license is valid only for the applicant and location stated on the license and is not transferable, would provide that a facility must pass a pre-license compliance inspection administered by the Department prior to issuance of a license, would require that the license be prominently displayed in a visible location at the facility at all times, would require the holder of the license to maintain complete and legible records on all feral hogs held at the facility for three (3) consecutive years
COMMENT PERIOD AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: The Department will hold a public hearing on Tuesday, Sept. 20, 2016, at 1 p.m. at the Macon State Farmers Market, located at 2055 Eisenhower Pkwy, Macon, GA 31206. The Department will also be accepting additional written comments from Aug. 19, 2016, to close of business (4:30 p.m. EST) on Sept. 19, 2016. All comments will be considered on Sept. 21, 2016.

From our archives:
Working together through hard times

PAGE 15

The Great Depression did not grow from one single calamitous event, but more a series of unfortunate ones. In Georgia, those took the form of the boll weevil and the worst drought in the state's history. Even so, farmers persevered. According to the archives of the Market Bulletin, the Georgia Department of Agriculture did its part to help. In 1932, the department partnered with Atlanta newspa-

pers to republish the advertisements seeking farm help that farmers submitted to the Market Bulletin. The department also joined forces with the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce to assist "more than a thousand families in Atlanta desiring to return to the farm." The department even promised to cover the expense of transporting workers to the farm, "without one cent of cost to the owner of the farm."

In the summer of 1933, Commissioner G.C. Adams offered the state's landowners the unusual option of trading urban tracts for farm acreage. Below is a reprint of his Aug. 21 message to readers and a sampling of the ads published in the Sept. 21, 1933, Farm Land Edition by those who found merit in his idea.

BACK TO THE FARM
I find a number of people living in the cities who own farm lands in the country. They find it unprofitable to try to farm these lands from a distance. They would like to exchange these farms for homes in the cities nearest them so that they could look after them without expense.
Probably there are as many people who own city property who would be glad to exchange it for farm lands. Many families in the towns are not employed, but they could be employed if they were on the farm.
Not only would there be employment for all the members of the family, but the environment in the country would be much better for the growing children. This exchange of property would greatly encourage the "Back to the Farm" movement.
I shall be very happy to assist in any way I can in this plan to place on the non-resident farms of our state as many home owners as possible. This would tend to give stability and contentment to a large number of people who are not reaping their just rewards from their surroundings. There is no home quite so well situated as one out in God's open country.
Those who own such property in the towns or in the country will please cooperate in this movement for the mutual benefit of thousands of the best people in our State.
G. C. ADAMS, Commissioner of Agriculture.

Truffles by Tate:

Dog trained for military duty sniffs out a market for pecan truffles

By Amy H. Carter Editor

Like most 4-year-olds, Tate Cohen is busy.

He launches in full run from the backseat of

Eric Cohen's pick-up truck as soon as the

door opens. Bobbing and weaving among

rows of pecan trees in the family orchard, Tate

is a blur until Eric Cohen commands him to

sniffing for truffles.

puppy to sniff out explosives. He was destined

Southern dog, he was also destined to hunt. His mastery of that skill was so complete that

Truffle season in Georgia runs from July through October. It can take anywhere from half an hour to one week to find a pound of truffles.

Georgia. Their truffles and truffle-

infused pecan oils have been the subject of national press, and are popular with chefs and epicures around the world. They even lead truffle hunts, which allow aficionados to accompany Tate on an expedition and take home up to two ounces of the truffles he discovers.
As it is with most farm commodities, however, harvesting truffles is dirty work. Truffles are dug with a small hand-rake, and are easy to mistake for rocks or pebbles. Tate makes it easy and, in fact, Eric admits that Tate taught him everything he knows.
When Tate alerts on a truffle, he'll scratch the ground once and then walk away while Eric or Mollie digs for the treasure. If they don't find it, they'll summon Tate back with the question, "Where's it at?" and he'll come back and lie down on his belly to indicate the spot. (Mollie, a former teacher, cringes at the bad grammar of that command; Tate doesn't seem to mind.)
"In Europe growers use pigs to hunt truffles, but pigs have a tendency to eat them," Mollie said. "Tate will scratch and lie down, and if we still don't see it he will put it in his mouth and bring it to us, but he's never eaten one."
That's part of the beauty of training dogs to hunt truffles, Brenneman said. With more dogs trained and deployed to find truffles, more growers like the Cohens can begin to market both the experience and the end product.
As for the Cohens, who sell the bulk of their pecan crop for export, the truffle business was intended as a sideline to keep their children Bradley and Elizabeth occupied in a constructive way. It's done that and more.
"It keeps them away from the TV, and they absolutely love it," Eric said.

Company designs software to streamline food safety data for growers, processors

By Ana Laura Alonso
iFood Decision Sciences
iFoodDecisionSciences provides data management software to growers, harvesters, coolers, packers, processors and shippers. Through close and extensive work with national and regional companies as well as produce industry associations, iFood identified the need for software to address food safety, quality, chemical use, sustainability and more. This work with the produce industry led to a suite of software products known as "The Toolbox."
Whether in the field or in a facility, collecting and managing data is time-consuming. iFood's solutions allow users to conduct field and facility tests and assessments in real-time and one time.
"We are committed to simplifying the burdensome task of collecting, documenting and managing data required of today's fruit and vegetable producers," said Diane Wetherington, CEO of iFood Decision Sciences. "Our goal is to put our customers in control of their data so they can get back to the business of producing food.
"So many of our fruit and vegetable clients tell us their food safety personnel are spending as much as sixty percent of their time collecting and recording food safety data. This leaves little time to focus on the more important job of managing risk and enhancing product quality."

iFood's data management solutions are all about managing risk. For companies documenting food safety and monitoring quality control on paper, there is now a way for it to be collected for real-time use. Managers will know if food safety processes are working as designed or if there are issues that need management's attention.
The Toolbox offers producers instant insight into their operations with immediate access to results and reports for analysis. Through user-based permission levels, assigned employees enter assessment data in the field. Once the assessment is submitted, managers in the office can view and stay on top of field activity and issues. Likewise, packers, processors and coolers can manage operations for each line or location at any time, from anywhere. Alerts notify managers when issues arise, enabling them to take immediate action.
With immediate access to information, producers benefit from significant improvements in productivity, enhanced data accuracy and improved communication among operations in different physical locations. Audit preparation is simplified. Companies are better positioned to handle increased data requirements quicker and to have faster response times.
"iFood has really improved our food safety program...not

only do I have no more paper to contend with, I know exactly what's going on real-time even across state lines," said Jill Chafin Ford, director of food safety and import/export for Southern Valley in Norman Park.
"When transitioning to the software initially, some employees loved it from the start while some others took getting used to the switch. But now after using it for a while it's become the new normal." iFood employees have years of experience developing and evolving data management solutions. As a result, iFood is able to offer a user-friendly platform transforming paper driven data into actionable intelligence. Each "Toolbox" is presented in an individual company web portal. Users enter data through any device at any time, from anywhere. iFood customers have flexibility in tailoring their software based on their company's current processes, needs and standard operating procedures. Training to get started with the tools is part of the iFood offering, as is ongoing customer support. iFoodDecisionSciences is headquartered in Seattle, Wash., with offices in several areas, including Georgia.
