Regulation and industry context
Cucumber is on the FDA Food Traceability List, so US supply chains must keep FSMA 204 key data elements for each critical tracking event from 20 July 2028.
Cucumbers have been linked to multistate Salmonella outbreaks in the US, which is one reason they are on the Food Traceability List. Mini-cucumber lines running 20,000 units per hour make manual lot recording impossible – scanning is the only practical method.
