CPS’ valuable content ranges from ready-to-use, science-based solutions to industry-specific research that provides proven results. CPS’s mission Fund the Science, Find Solutions and Fuel the Change provides the basis for research decisions and action plans. Below you can find some of the information they share with growers.

The KTTF intends to take the wealth of CPS research work and results to distribute this knowledge out to industry stakeholders, addressing food safety management issues.
