The main objective of these lectures (and discussions) is to explain Food law principles and objectives relevant to food and feed production and distribution. Basic requirements on the manufacturing, labelling, marketing and control of food quality and safety are presented with respect to both unified European market and specific national rules. Attention is paid to the protection of consumers against fraud and misleading information as well as to the assessment of nutrition and health claims. Scientifically based health risk management, "from farm to fork" approach to traceability of raw materials (including feed), and principles of "Good Hygienic/Manufacturing Practice" are presented to understand the most important European regulations and technical standards.
