FDA issued Draft Guidance for Industry on: Classification of Activities as Harvesting, Packing, Holding, or Manufacturing/Processing for Farms and Facilities

This guidance is intended to help you determine which activities that you perform are within the “farm” definition. It helps to determine when an establishment

is required to register with FDA as a “facility,” or is not required to register with FDA because the establishment is a “farm.”
