The Farm-to-Market Process Production Production Initial stage in processInitial stage in process Farmers produce fruits, vegetable, grains, livestock, or clothing fiberFarmers produce fruits, vegetable, grains, livestock, or clothing fiber Historically, this was the only step in the process since most of the product was consumed by the families who produced itHistorically, this was the only step in the process since most of the product was consumed by the families who produced it

Food Processing Food Processing Converts raw foodstuffs into consumable foodConverts raw foodstuffs into consumable food Farmers have contracts to sell their product to a food processorsFarmers have contracts to sell their product to a food processors Example: food processors then convert raw materials into processed food by adding preservatives, flavoring, or otherwise improving food quality Ranchers and farmers who raise livestock sell their product to meatpackers at marketsRanchers and farmers who raise livestock sell their product to meatpackers at markets Example: meat processors then convert raw materials into processed food Definition : transformation of raw foodstuffs from the farm into the food that humans can consume

Food Processing

Packaging Packaging Final stage of food processing stagesFinal stage of food processing stages Protects food from spoiling, spilling, and breakingProtects food from spoiling, spilling, and breaking Labeling occurs in this stageLabeling occurs in this stage Packaging needs depends on the needs of the productPackaging needs depends on the needs of the product Example: eggs are packaged into cardboard containers labeled “fragile” or “breakable”

Transportation and Distribution Transportation and Distribution Necessary stage since most food produced today is not consumed locallyNecessary stage since most food produced today is not consumed locally Mode of transportation variesMode of transportation varies Example: ships, trains, trailers Vital shipping roleVital shipping role Transports raw goods directly to market Transports raw goods directly to market Transports raw goods to processing facilities Transports raw goods to processing facilities Transports processed goods to market Transports processed goods to market Transports processed goods to warehouse facilities Transports processed goods to warehouse facilities

Marketing Marketing Involves the advertising, buying, and selling of productsInvolves the advertising, buying, and selling of products Vital selling roleVital selling role Product must be appealing to Product must be appealing to customers customers Example: packaging requirements  Product must be readily available Example: sold in vending machines, grocery stores, or butchers
