Joe Moritz, an Assistant Professor of Poultry Production in the Davis College, is part of a multi-state, $600,000 project to study food safety in natural and organic poultry. The project is being funded by the United States Department of Agriculture National Integrated Food Safety Initiative and was profiled at Innovations Report:
“Organic poultry currently accounts for no more than 2 percent of the total poultry market, but it is the largest share of the organic meat market and is growing by leaps and bounds. Between 1997 and 2003, sales of organic broilers increased from about 38,000 to 6.3 million birds.”
