Yesterday's module focused on farm animal residents, but what about animal visitors or workers? Wildlife and pets also produce poop, and their presence must be taken into account when you are creating your produce safety plan.
Do you have a dog or cat that helps control pests and predators on your farm? Do deer consider your land their personal grocery store?
This is a good time to start thinking about how these animal partners interact with your operation and impact the safety of your production practices.
