Produce that has come into direct contact with fecal material is not to be harvested. A "no harvest zone" approx. 5ft (1.5 m) radius should be implemented unless or until adequate mitigation measures have been considered. If evidence of fecal material is found, a food safety assessment should be conducted by qualified personnel. This question is "no" if the grower has already noted this issue and performed adequate correct actions. Consideration of the maturity stage and type of crop involved is required.
