The course focuses on the production of food raw materials. The issues of agriculture production, storage and post-harvest handling are discussed. The students are familiarized with the basic qualitative parameters of selected raw materials (animal and plant origin) and with the legislative aspects and agricultural standards that influence the production of food raw materials. The course enhances awareness of the global "from farm to fork" approach to food production.
