This report presents findings for topics that are tracked regularly including consumer concerns in relation to food, food affordability, and trust in the FSA as a regulator. It also includes questions on precision breeding and precision fermentation that were included in March and February 2026 respectively. Sometimes other topics are included on an ad-hoc basis.
