\u00a1Buenos d\u00edas amig@s!<\/p>\n
El gobierno de Estados Unidos emiti\u00f3 el viernes 13 de noviembre un conjunto de \u00a0nuevas reglas de seguridad para impedir brotes masivos de intoxicaci\u00f3n alimentaria. Los Centros para Control y Prevenci\u00f3n de las Enfermedades de este pa\u00eds calculan que 48 millones de personas \u20141 de cada 6 en Estados Unidos\u2014 enferman cada a\u00f1o por intoxicaciones alimentarias, con un total de 3,000 muertes.<\/p>\n
Estas reglas aparecen enfocadas a la supervisi\u00f3n de la producci\u00f3n de las granjas: asegurarse de que los trabajadores sean instruidos en mejores pr\u00e1cticas de salud e higiene, que se examine el agua de riego a fin de impedir bacterias perjudiciales e impedir que los animales silvestres defequen en los campos de cultivo\u2026<\/p>\n
En general, la mayor\u00eda de los agricultores y procesadores de alimentos siguen pr\u00e1cticas de seguridad adecuadas, pero las reglas buscan hacer \u00e9nfasis en la prevenci\u00f3n, ya que en los \u00faltimos a\u00f1os esta producci\u00f3n primaria ha aparecido vinculada a la aparici\u00f3n de numerosos brotes en la ultima d\u00e9cada: espinacas, melones, pepinos y otros alimentos contaminados.<\/p>\n
Estas nuevas reglas confieren mayor autoridad a la FDA (Food and Drug Administration). La FDA propuso ya estas reglas sobre los vegetales en 2013, pero las reescribi\u00f3 el a\u00f1o pasado despu\u00e9s que algunos agricultores alzar\u00e1n la voz comentando que ser\u00edan demasiado costosas. Las reglas requieren que los agricultores examinen la calidad del agua de irrigaci\u00f3n, entrenen a En comparaci\u00f3n con las reglas propuestas inicialmente, las actuales por ejemplo, requieren medidas menos exigentes para la calidad del agua de irrigaci\u00f3n y reduce la frecuencia de los ex\u00e1menes (menor desembolsos econ\u00f3mico para el agricultor en lo que anal\u00edticas de agua se refiere).<\/p>\n
La industria org\u00e1nica manifest\u00f3 preocupaciones por las reglas, especialmente debido a que muchos agricultores org\u00e1nicos utilizan esti\u00e9rcol como fertilizante y tratan el agua de irrigaci\u00f3n con menos sustancias qu\u00edmicas.<\/p>\n
En general las medidas se hac\u00edan necesarias ya que el gobierno de EEUU est\u00e1 promoviendo cada vez m\u00e1s una alimentaci\u00f3n saludable, enfocada al consumo de frutas y verduras (recordad lo comentado\u00a0 la semana pasada de prohibici\u00f3n de grasas trans en la fabricaci\u00f3n de alimentos en este pa\u00eds).<\/p>\n
