Food hygiene The term "food hygiene" is used to describe the

preservation and preparation of foods in a manner. This term typically refers to these practices at an individual or family level, whereas the term “food sanıtatıon" usually refers to these types of procedures at the commercial level within the food industry. Food hygiene in the home kitchen includes things such as the proper storage of food before use.

1- what do you think about food hygiene ?

Do not leave foods out on the counter to defrost, and certainly do not run them under warm water, which can cause bacteria growth. This is very important for food hygiene as well. Instead, defrost frozen foods in the refrigerator, or run them under cold water. Then, immediately cook the food. It is important to ensure that foods are cooked at the proper temperature, and for the right amount of time, to heat them completely and kill any bacteria found there.

2 – Why is so important to wash fruits and vegatables ?

It’s always very important to wash fruits and vegetables because ıt affects our body so much. Maybe ıt ınvolves a lot of vırus and unless we don’t wash ıt, we can be sick. It can be rısk for our lıfe.

3- why is so important to label storage and transportation our products?

It is so important for us to sell our products ın a good price, not only grownıng the agrıculture of products but also we need to sell thıs products ın this price.

4 – Which are the viruses that we can take if we eat fruits and vegetables that aren’t washed?

Fruits and vegetables are major vehicles for transmission of food-born enteric viruses.

We can be sıck at the stomach and we can take virus that can kıll us like coco bacterıa.

5-Which are the ways to make cleaner food?

The best hygiene way ıs to not contamınate the products, to wash them very well and to be careful.

How does Organic Farming effect the turkish economy?

In a good way. But, effect on economy is less than the

oppurtunities that it provides. In organic agriculture you produce less

products to make it more aromatic and natural.

It doesn’t have a beneficial effect like industry.

How do you sell your products?

-We prepare our products compeletly ready for markets with a package has every information about the products on.

-In the past, we used to set bazaars up to sell our products, but now we head towards to markets.

-With our sells we caught european standarts.

How do you grow your products?

several methods: aquaculture greenhouse Turkey can do every agricultural

producing system easily which is a big advantage for us.

Do you export your products? If you do, which countries do you export to?

-Our biggest market is Germany. In recent times, Near Iraq became our

second biggest market. The others are:

-England-Russia (importing vegetables from Tr.)

-Netherlands

How much energy do you save with organic farming?

There is no much connections between organic farming and energy. We think

that it is more important to aim for alternative energy sources, because solar energy is mother of the energy.

Where are the lands which are used for organic farming?

- We have specific basins that are near water sources.

- The most popular ones in Turkey are:1- Çukurova2- Gediz havzası (The one that Manisa on)3- Çatalca4- Bafra Ovası5- Iğdır Ovası6- Urfa Ovası, and the other ones.
