Toilets on the Farm

Michele Schermann and, Annalisa Hultberg (2012)

Summary

Clean and accessible toilet facilities must be available on the farm site for all workers and visitors to use. Proper field sanitation helps reduce the potential for contaminating produce and helps protect workers and consumers from foodborne diseases. Teach all workers the importance of using toilet facilities and how doing so can reduce the potential for contaminating fields, produce, other workers, and water supplies.
