(2) technologies, including existing technologies, that enhance traceback and trace forward.
(d) Report- The Secretary shall report to Congress on the findings of the pilot project under this section, together with recommendations for establishing more effective traceback and trace forward procedures for processed food.
(e) Processed Food- In this section, the term ‘processed food’ has the meaning given such term in section 201(gg) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 321(gg)).
This is the first step to complete corporate takeover of the food supply.

It is just rediculous to think that the government would try and control your garden for your own consumption.
It is just rediculous to think that the government would try and control your garden for your own consumption. If you didn't realize there has been all kinds of problems in the last few years with food bourne illness in processed and unprocessed produce which the the main push behind this bill. They are just trying to implement a better system for food safety. Including our national food supply and inspection of food stuffs from foreign nations such as China.
I don't get why everything has to be a huge conspiracy.

Thats pretty terrible, who comes up with this garbage, and how does it even get the time of day. Also, why would homeland security be incharge of mom and pop farms, peoples gardens or farmers markets, seems a bit messed. I wonder what the Department of Agriculture has to say about this?
