<h1>USFDA Report Urges Training for Aquaculture Safety; India Responds with Programs in Key States.</h1> USFDA officials visited India from April 26 to May 7, 2010, to assess measures for controlling chemotherapeutic residues in aquaculture products. Their report, submitted on February 28, 2011, highlighted a reliance on laboratory testing without a comprehensive food safety training and inspection program. They recommended training on Good Aquaculture Practices, record-keeping of substances used, and inspections of facilities and feed manufacturers.
