Unwrapping Packaging Regulations Impacting Agricultural Trade and Sustainability

April 30, 2024

Via Zoom

The April 2024 Farm Foundation® Forum, Unwrapping Packaging Regulations Impacting Agricultural Trade and Sustainability, took place via Zoom on Tuesday, April 30, at 9 a.m. CT. In this timely Forum, we’ll took a look at packaging rules and regulations impacting US growers and companies, with a specific look at packaging in the fruit and vegetable supply chains. As countries and companies look to limit their packaging footprint, this Farm Foundation Forum explored how proposed regulations might not only  impact supply chains and global food and ag trade but also how these impact producers on the ground.
