What are the good agriculture practices, storage practices, dispatch and transport practices to prevent the contamination. Several foodborne molds may be hazardous to human or animal health because of their ability to produce toxic metabolites known as mycotoxins. Mycotoxins are a group of naturally occurring toxins produced by moulds or fungi in grain while in the field or during storage. Typically triggered by weather extremes, these toxins can impair human health and cause economic losses in livestock.
