excellent business opportunity in sharing our vision and goals. it also refreshed interest amongst existing members to give us a revitalized platform to serve our clients according to their needs in 2013 and beyond.

We gained around 5,000 new growers and opened new markets for them, adding Russia as a new country with GLOBALG.A.P. Certification. All our certified producers are working hard to meet our shared goals to protect scarce resources and build a more sustainable future. Our first-ever G.A.P. Awards showed just how innovative producers are at using certification not only to demonstrate compliance but also to improve their efficiency and reach new markets.

our suMMit 2012 in Madrid brought together more than 400 experts from 49 countries and 400 Internet live stream viewers, that’s a record of over 800 individuals

from more than 65 countries who all saw the launch of our new product range and supply chain solutions.

we have enhanced our brand communication with several new publications and our brand new website. Re-launched this year, we designed it to provide you with fast, easy and free access to extensive information on our system, products and services.

I’d like to thank our GLOBALG.A.P. members and stakeholders for their valuable contributions to supporting the global G.A.P. upgrade.

The marketing strategy and plan developed by the Board was the focus of a great deal of management attention in 2012. Along with the introduction of our new products and services, the plan also required us to make a number of significant internal organizational changes that have helped us realign our team and processes so we can better deliver on our important and challenging goals.

Our G.A.P. Benchmarking has received more applications than ever before. GLOBALG.A.P. Benchmarking is where we strive to work with other industry bodies to harmonize G.A.P. requirements, and thereby simplify certification and reduce audit duplication for producers worldwide.

GloBAlG.A.P.’s high integrity-based system draws a great deal of respect from many of our stakeholders. As a result 2012 saw a rise in our activities with a number of key governmental and non-governmental organizations, includ-ing EU DG Sanco/Food and Veterinary Office, FDA, FAO, OIE, World Bank, WTO and WWF. We also renewed and strengthened our co-operation with the Chinese Government.

GLOBALG.A.P. would like to thank all the Board members who have served from 2008-2012 for their dedicated pursuit of our strategic goals and their valuable contribution to strengthening the GloBAlG.A.P. brand across the globe.

Over the past two years, GLOBALG.A.P. north America, Inc. (GGnA) has played a key role in the Produce GAPs Harmonization Initiative sponsored by the United Fresh Produce Association. this all-industry effort (including grow-ers, shippers, produce buyers, government agencies, audit organizations and other stakeholders) resulted in a landmark achievement: the development of the Harmonized Standards, two audit checklists covering essential food safety control points for the produce industry. These audit checklists enjoy nearly universal industry support and recognition, but by design lack the governance framework and audit system of full-fledged food safety standards.

In response, GGnA developed and launched in 2012 the Produce Safety Standard (PSS), the industry’s first complete standard aligned with the Harmonized Standards

checklists. GGnA structured PSS externally as an implemen-tation and extension of the harmonized standards offering widespread retailer, producer and regulatory recognition. within the GloBAlG.A.P. standards family, Pss serves as a subset of our international flagship standard Integrated Farm Assurance (IFA), the most comprehensive, progressive and widely used food safety standard in the world, which already enjoys strong market support in the north American market especially among produce exporters. PSS thus offers produce farmers an essential food safety standard with a built-in upgrade path to IFA to meet their future expansion needs. To offer additional flexibility and adaptability to meet market demand, PSS is also expandable via add-on modules.

GGnA contributed to the development of Tomato Metrics, an add-on module for PSS that provides additional

control points specific to the tomato industry. Two additional Pss add-on modules for the leafy greens and citrus industry are now under development. GGnA has secured certifica-tion body support for PSS and expects strong market interest in this new, flexible and adaptable standard.

Having developed the farm assurer system of on-site advisors to assist producers with the certification process, GGnA expanded its network in 2012, adding 6 new farm assurers and associate members, including the first aquaculture-focused advisor: Food Safety and Sustainability Specialists, Farm Fresh Assurance, Safe Quality Seafood Associates, lighthouse fs & q, Agricultural Production Safety and Crop Production Consultants. GGnA also actively pursued producer support over the past year, engaging 2 new producer members (Lipman Produce

Companies in Immokalee, FL—the largest tomato producer in the USA—and Ozzy Organics in Toronto, On). We expect several additional major producers to join in early 2013.

GGnA also attended multiple FDA/USDA policy meet-ings in Washington, D.C. As reported in last year’s Annual Report, GLOBALG.A.P. north America has been working closely with the food and drug Administration on the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA). in early January 2013, the FDA published the Proposed Rules for Produce. GGnA will continue to actively work with the FDA during the commentary period and align our standards with the new requirements as they are finalized.

throughout the year, GGnA met with international retailer food safety staff as well as major suppliers and producer

associations. We also participated in GLOBALG.A.P.’s international conference SUMMIT 2012 in Madrid, Spain. GGnA invited key speaker Dave Sargent, the owner of the GLOBALG.A.P.-certified Sargent Farms, who supplies 1,600 Walmart supercenters with fresh produce. dave sargent gave a resounding endorsement of GloBAlG.A.P.

GGnA improved its website services, as well as certifica-tion body and farm assurer customer support and relations. We relocated our office and operations from Bethesda to Baltimore, MD. GLOBALG.A.P. north America looks forward to making substantial progress in 2013 as we continue to work with producers, retailers, regulatory agencies and consultants to serve at the vanguard of food safety standards development in the USA, Canada and Mexico.

GLOBALG.A.P., in my opinion as a farmer,

is the best thing that’s ever happened to the industry.

The 18 members of the Technical Committee Crops (TC Crops) met three times in 2012 to evaluate the feedback they received on the implementation of the IFA V4 Standard, which included product identification with the GLOBALG.A.P. number (GGn). TC Crops also approved seven national Interpretation Guidelines and reviewed proposals from the various national Technical Working Groups.

Members also evaluated the proposals made by the Certification Body Committee concerning shortened checklists and the adaptation of auditor qualification criteria to local situations. TC Crops also reviewed feedback from the related stakeholder committees (SHC Crop Protection, SHC on Microbiological Risk and SHC on Responsible Water Management).

The committee met three times during 2012 to work on the development of a microbio-logical risk toolkit for producers. This comprehensive and easy-to-use toolkit is designed to help producers better identify the microbiological risks related to their farming activities and to provide them with tips for the proper management of those risks.

The work carried out by the 22 members of this committee also made it possible to identify a few elements that are not specifically addressed in our IFA V4 and to suggest best practices to better manage them. The first draft of the toolkit was presented and discussed at the SUMMIT 2012 round table on microbial risks in fruit & vegetables. Trials have been conducted in Belgium, China, Ireland, Italy, Spain and UK. The group is also currently working on a specific toolkit for seed sprouters.

The Stakeholder Committee GLOBALG.A.P. Risk Assessment on Social Practice (SHC GRASP) enables GLOBALG.A.P. members and other stakeholders to integrate their expertise for the improvement and development of the GRASP Add-on. committee members are in a continuous dialogue with other initiatives on common interests as well as developing possible synergies with the GRASP add-on module.

Members are responsible for proposing, approving and endorsing revisions to the GRASP General Regulations and Control Points and Compliance Criteria that arise out of practical experience and implementation. They also monitor stakeholder processes to develop GRASP national Interpretation Guidelines and approve them.

In 2012 SHC GRASP worked on the refinement of the GRASP tools. They discussed the GRASP checklist and decided to implement a clearer status of the assessment results. The committee members also agreed to improve the database functionalities.

The SHC Crop Protection (former Crop Protection Working Group) was initiated in 2006 to address several complex issues such as exceeding maximum residue levels (MRLs) and minor use/specialty crops. Made up of GLOBALG.A.P. members who are experts in the field of crop protection, the working group makes recommendations to the TC Crops and the GloBAlG.A.P. Board.

During its deliberations, the SHC Crop Protection consults broadly with key stakeholders, including other industry groups, civil societies and regulators as well as the plant protection product industry.

The Technical Committee Aquaculture (TC Aquaculture) held 3 meetings (Dusseldorf, DE; Edinburgh, UK; Madrid, ES) in 2012. Based on the feedback from the field and after a 2-year period of implementation, committee members discussed ways of improving and fine-tuning the GLOBALG.A.P. IFA Aquaculture Standard V4. This specifically also focused on the issue of animal welfare. Two experts on animal welfare on the fish farming level were invited to contribute to the development of additional concrete activities that can be included as criteria in the next standard update.

TC Aquaculture also launched guidelines for aquaculture smallholders in February 2012 and approved the national Technical Guideline on Aquaculture for Thailand.

TC Aquaculture members also acted as observers during the FAO Committee on Fisheries meetings in Hyderabad, Pakistan in February 2012 and in Rome, Italy in July 2012.

TC Aquaculture consists of representatives from producers, processors and retailers, totaling 24 members. For consultation on specific issues, the committee regularly invites experts from the Certification Body Committee as well as animal welfare nGOs and specialists.

A consumer site on aquaculture was developed to raise consumer awareness of good aqua-cultural practice as well as provide a product verification tool. The site enables consumers to verify the source of their fish product by checking the GLOBALG.A.P. number (GGn) printed on the package. The site is available at: www.my-fish.info, www.kontrollierte-aquakultur.info, www.mein-fisch.info

2012 was another busy year for the Technical Committee Livestock (TC Livestock). Three meetings were held (Leeds, UK; Copenhagen, DK; Madrid, ES) where members discussed and finalized the TC Livestock strategy plan for the coming years. A significant aspect of the committee’s work, the strategy plan outlines the TC Livestock’s strategic objectives as well as the measures and structure needed to accomplish them.

Members also made amendments to the Compound Feed Manufacturing Standard for Version 2.1, specifically adding the new section 15 entitled “Responsible Use of natural Resources”, concerning the sourcing of fishmeal and fish oil.

TC Livestock revised the requirements in the GLOBALG.A.P. Livestock Base regarding the sourcing of grains for livestock feed home-mixers. Previously, home-mixers could only source grains certified against the GLOBALG.A.P. Combinable Crops Standard. Alternatively, they can now source combinable crops intended for the production of home-mixed feed for live-stock that are fit for purpose, safe for feed and food production, risk-assessed and traceable to the grain producer. This possibility of a written risk assessment eases the sourcing of grains for livestock feed of home-mixers.

the committee reviewed the drafts for the new animal welfare add-ons for broilers and finishing pigs and approved them for pilot assessments. It also began work on developing an add-on module for the responsible use of antibiotics in livestock.

The committee supported the benchmarking application of Dutch IKB for poultry and veal. IKB pigs standard is currently benchmarked against IFA 3.0 and has just initiated its re-benchmarking process for IFA V4.

stAkeHOLdeR cOMMIttee ON ANIMAL WeLFARe

GLOBALG.A.P. launched two new GLOBALG.A.P.+ Add-On products for animal welfare, which define the requirements for complementary and voluntary add-on certification of livestock production systems.

Since november 2011, the GLOBALG.A.P. Stakeholder Committee on Animal Welfare has been working on establishing criteria for the on-farm assessment of animal welfare that go beyond the legal requirements. Members set up two working groups to define two sets of Control Points and Compliance Criteria (CPCCs) – one for broilers and one for finishing pigs – that are science-based, feasible, economically viable, and auditable.

The committee, consisting of representatives from producers, processors, retailers, certification bodies, academia and nGOs, finalized the drafts in August 2012. The Technical Committee Livestock then reviewed these drafts and approved them for pilot assessments, which took place in Hungary, Germany and the netherlands in autumn 2012.

in december 2012, the GloBAlG.A.P. Animal welfare Add-on Modules for finishing Pigs and Broiler Chicken were under final discussion with the Technical Committee Livestock and will be ready for implementation in early 2013. Certification bodies that apply for these add-on modules will be required to undergo specific training.

Water scarcity is a problem for about 700 million people in 43 countries. Projections say that figure will rise to 4 billion by 2030. Water supply is inextricably linked to food produc-tion and Good Agricultural Practice and so GLOBALG.A.P. set up a stakeholder committee to tackle the issue and propose workable solutions.

The GLOBALG.A.P. Stakeholder Committee on Responsible Water Management (SHC Water) held its first meeting in February 2012 in Berlin during the Fruit Logistica trade fair. The committee’s aim is to help GLOBALG.A.P. develop an auditable section or module relating to water sustainability.

After adopting the Terms of Reference and defining a schedule, the core group of SHC Water members met several times to develop the first draft of Control Points and Compliance Criteria (cPcc) after a G.A.P. analysis. this draft was discussed during the round table discussions at the GloBAlG.A.P. suMMit in Madrid in november 2012, and the comments are currently under evaluation.

The next stage involves extending the scope to include comments from the livestock and aquaculture sectors. The objective is to develop a set of CPCCs that can be used as an add-on assessment for GLOBALG.A.P. IFA Standard V4, but that will become part of GloBAlG.A.P. ifA standard V5.

‘tHINk GLObAL, Act LOcAL’

That’s the philosophy at the heart of GLOBALG.A.P.’s activities. And national Technical Working Groups (nTWGs) play a significant role in achieving this goal.

Set up by GLOBALG.A.P. members and composed of national experts and stakeholders, nTWGs identify specific local adaptation and implementation challenges and develop guidelines for their country. These guidelines, known as national Interpretation Guidelines, provide certification bodies and producers clear guidance on how best to implement GLOBALG.A.P.’s universal standard on a national level.

new ntwG eXtrAnet driven by the social site builder ninG, the new ntwG Extranet is a new platform developed exclusively for nTWG members. Once they set up their profiles, nTWG members can take advantage of the social networking tools available to exchange/share information, upload documents and chat with peers.

For instructions on how to register and create your profile on the nTWG Extranet, please contact the GLOBALG.A.P. Secretariat: [email protected].

GloBAlG.A.P. continued to grow by an overall rate of ten percent in numbers of certified producers in 2012, despite the economic crisis in many parts of the world. The conti-nental share of certifications largely remained unchanged. Most significant new market entries: Russia with mushrooms, Greece with sea bass and sea bream, and the netherlands with pig production via benchmarking.

The number of GLOBALG.A.P.-certified growers doubled in Egypt, Kenya and the USA for produce, and Brazil mainly through poultry. Countries with almost 30% certified produc-er growth in 2012 are Peru, Guatemala, and south korea.

The annual production in total has reached 1.5 million tons of harvested products leaving the farms. The most impor-tant countries in terms of numbers of certified producers are Vietnam, norway and Turkey. in terms of tonnage, norway has the leading position, followed by Chile and Vietnam.

GLOBALG.A.P. Livestock Certification now covers 16 countries. As expected in 2011, major producers in Brazil brought a boost in livestock certifications, with about 770 livestock producers with an annual production of more than 450,000 tons in total un-der certification in Brazil by the end of 2012. Together with Italy, Spain and Hungary, Brazil covers now 92% of the certified production quantity worldwide.

After the finalization of Benchmarking for the Dutch IKB Varken system, more than 4,400 pig producers were registered to the GLOBALG.A.P. Database in 2012.

Flowers and Ornamentals Certification has increased by 15% in 2012 with now 598 producers under certification in 26 countries worldwide.

Our Integrity Program is pioneering, the first of its kind in food certification, and is designed to ensure consistent delivery and implementation of the standard worldwide. It acts as a feedback mechanism that serves the ongoing improvement of the GLOBALG.A.P. System in all its aspects. And it promotes transparency and integrity throughout the entire G.A.P. harmonization process.

in short, it builds confidence and trust.

The Integrity Program is built on 2 key pillars that are interconnected on the levels of development, implementation and monitoring.

tHe INteGRItY

PROGRAM

FActs & FIGuRes

BIPRO – THE BRAnD IDEnTITY PROGRAM AnD ITS keY tool the GloBAlG.A.P. dAtABAse

BIPRO detects any improper use of the GLOBALG.A.P. brand logo as well as any financial and contractual issues, non-authorized certification bodies (CB) and fraudulent certification. The program relies on one of the key features of the GLOBALG.A.P. Database: the online certificate validation tool, which is now used daily by traders and retailers worldwide. the tool secures instant and complete accessibility of registration and status data of every producer and product for all options to make our standards transparent.

CIPRO – THE CERTIFICATIOn InTEGRITY PROGRAM The Certification Integrity Program (CIPRO) monitors and assesses the performance of all GLOBALG.A.P. accredited certification bodies. It ensures that certification bodies are conducting their audits in line with GLOBALG.A.P. require-ments and procedures and verifies that the same criteria and quality standards are used on a consistent basis.

CIPRO sets into place an ongoing process of quality assur-ance, improvement and transparency. This includes moni-toring approved certification bodies, following-up reports of exceeded maximum residue levels and food-crisis, and providing technical support and training.

deVeloPMents in 2012

in 2012, GloBAlG.A.P. ifA Version 4 became obligatory for all certification bodies. Increased training requirements were introduced and as a result the online training was made mandatory for all inspectors and auditors, approx. 1,500, before they can begin working with IFA V4. The QMS (Option 2) auditor training for all GLOBALG.A.P. auditors was also made obligatory. Each CB is required to appoint an in-house trainer that has passed the in-house trainer exam for each applicable scope.

During 2012 GLOBALG.A.P. carried out 270 CIPRO assessments, involving more than 50 cBs in 25 different countries. countries that received the greatest number of assessments in 2012 were Turkey, United States,

Germany, India, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Spain. Wherever it was possible GLOBALG.A.P. selected producer groups for the integrity assessments.

MANuFActuRING (cFM)

In 2012 GLOBALG.A.P. updated the Compound Feed Manufacturing standard to Version 2.1, adding the new section 15 entitled “Responsible Use of natural resources”. this sets clear criteria on the sourcing of fishmeal and fish oil from wild marine species, specify-ing that it should only be sourced from species of wild captured fish that are not on the IUCn Red List and classified as critically endangered or endangered.

One international source of valuable input to the new section came from the Prince’s charities international

sustainability unit (isu). hrh the Prince of wales estab-lished the isu to facilitate consensus on how to resolve some of the key environmental challenges facing the world, such as food security, ecosystem resilience and the depletion of natural capital. GLOBALG.A.P. joined a selected group of experts from the fisheries and retail industries as well as scheme owners, academia and nGOs who met to discuss the ISU’s latest report “Transi-tion to sustainable and resilient fisheries” and to launch the isu’s Marine Programme.

Being twice invited and having participated in the Prince of wales international sustainability unit meetings in London, it was a big honor to meet Prince Charles per-sonally. the exchange of information and the incentives given for the responsible sourcing of fishmeal and fish oil from wild capture were outstanding.

localg.a.p. offers producers and retailers two options:• The localg.a.p. standard is a complete package

solution that you can use right away. • The localg.a.p. program is a customized solution

that gives GLOBALG.A.P. members the opportunity to initiate their own program.

the locAlG.A.P. stAndArd

Our cost-effective, ready-to-use solution offers a stepwise approach that covers the minimum requirements for food safety and hygiene. ideal for emerging growers, this solution provides a sub-set of GLOBALG.A.P. IFA control points, a localg.a.p. checklist and localg.a.p. general rules. Producers who have successfully implemented the localg.a.p. standard receive a letter of conformance and are assigned

a localg.a.p number or LGn. This unique 13-digit num-ber identifies producers in the GLOBALG.A.P. Database and makes it easier for retailers to trace producers and monitor their audit results. Buyers interested in sourcing from localg.a.p.-assessed producers can download the localg.a.p. standard documents from our website and pass them on to their producers for implementation. To monitor their localg.a.p. producers, they simply sign an agreement for observer status to gain access to the GloBAlG.A.P. database.

The localg.a.p. standard is available in two levels: • the Foundation Level is ideal for produce and com-

modities producers with fewer food safety risks who sell primarily on a local level. This is only available for fruit & vegetable producers.

• the Intermediate Level incorporates stronger food safety criteria, accepted by select national retailers. This is available for fruit & vegetable, livestock and aquaculture producers.

ProJects

South AfricaSA Livestock GAP has developed a localg.a.p. standard (based on IFA), initially for the production of pigs, but in response to retailer demands later expanded it to include all the sub-scopes. Training and consultation by veterinarians on farms are due to start in 2013.

localg.a.p. PFA-PL in PolandSince 2010 the Warsaw-based EWA-BIS corporation has been consulting small farmers as a GloBAlG.A.P. farm

Assurer to help them qualify for the localg.a.p. PFA-PL standard. In 2012, it continued localg.a.p. PFA-PL implemen-tation, adding 200 farms growing apples, raspberries, cher-ries, currants, strawberries and cauliflower. Producers of two producer groups who were certified in 2011 for localg.a.p. PFA-PL decided to implement GLOBALG.A.P. Certification in 2012. For the first time, inspections were conducted for Op-tion 2. Two cold stores and one producer group completed the audit and received a localg.a.p. certificate of confor-mance. Another producer group initiated preparations for inspections, with audits planned for January 2013. Produc-ers who had implemented localg.a.p. PFA-PL in the previous year and went on to achieve GLOBALG.A.P. expressed their great satisfaction with the localg.a.p. system as a stepping stone to GLOBALG.A.P. Certification, as it made it much easier for them to adapt to the additional requirements.


Water scarcity is a problem for about 700 million people in 43 countries today. Projections indicate that by 2030 this figure will rise to 4 billion people worldwide. Water supply is inextricably linked to food production and Good Agricultural Practice.

As part of its efforts to address this pressing issue, GloBAlG.A.P. signed a Memorandum of understanding with the European Water Stewardship (EWS) in 2012, in which both agreed to combine their synergies to promote and advance sustainable water use in agricultural produc-tion. By expanding stakeholder involvement, both organi-zations have decided to cooperate closely in the area of standard implementation and certification and support the “one auditor through the farm gate” approach.

Corporate social responsibility is a key aspect of Good Agricultural Practice. The GLOBALG.A.P. Risk Assessment on social Practice (GrAsP), a GloBAlG.A.P.+ Add-on product, helps producers establish a good social manage-ment system on their farms. It is an ideal way for produc-ers to demonstrate that their agricultural products are deliv-ered in line with internationally agreed labor requirements as well as relevant local legislation.

This voluntary ready-to-use module assesses social prac-tices on the farm, addressing specific aspects of workers’ health, safety and welfare. GrAsP measures can be assessed together with the annual GloBAlG.A.P. audit. A GRASP-trained GLOBALG.A.P. auditor or inspector conducts the assessment of the production facilities.

The European Water Stewardship (EWS) is the integrative system for business and agriculture to assess, verify and communicate sustainable water management practices. It is the result of a wide stakeholder process, coordinated by the European Water Partnership (EWP), and embodiesthe collective effort and know-how of water users in agri-culture and industry. the ews follows on the water Vision for Europe by defining a system of clear steps towards sustainable water management at operational and river basin levels.

The cooperation framework enables both organizations to share their expertise and build up and advance the global platform for certification of sustainable water use with a focus on agricultural production. By using the GLOBALG.A.P.

Certification platform, the EWS system can be further adapted to specific agricultural and certification require-ments. GLOBALG.A.P. will support the EWS by defining certification regulations such as auditing frequency, scope and qualifications for auditors, supporting the approval of certification bodies for EWS, and implementing the EWS standard in the GloBAlG.A.P. database.

In return EWS will share its knowledge and expertise with GLOBALG.A.P. as well as actively participate in GLOBALG.A.P.’s Stakeholder Committee on Responsible water Management.

The assessment results are then uploaded to the GLOBALG.A.P. Database, showing the producer’s level of compliance and are visible to industry supply chain partners and buyers who have been granted access.

Legal requirements regarding the control points differ from country to country. To make these requirements transpar-ent to producers, auditors and inspectors on a local level, GLOBALG.A.P. develops GRASP national Interpretation Guidelines together with local multi-stakeholder groups. And so GrAsP can only be assessed in those countries for which a national Interpretation Guideline is available.

To date, GRASP national Interpretation Guidelines have been developed for the following countries: Austria, Brazil,

chile, costa rica, columbia, Germany, israel, italy, Kenya, Mexico, Morocco, Pakistan, Spain, South Africa, usA and Vietnam.

In 2012 GRASP guidelines were developed for Pakistan. the secretariat conducted 2 GrAsP trainings for auditors and inspectors with nearly 30 participants.

The GRASP stakeholder committee worked on the continu-ous improvement of the GRASP documents and the imple-mentation of the tool in the GloBAlG.A.P. database.

Almost 200 GLOBALG.A.P. auditors and inspectors are now qualified to conduct GRASP assessments.

Good Agricultural Practice is on the rise, and with it the demand for highly qualified consultants and trainers who can translate the GLOBALG.A.P. Certification vision and principles on a local level. In 2012 GLOBALG.A.P. initiated the Farm Assurer Capacity Building Program (FA-CAP) in its efforts to meet the growing demand for on-farm food safety certification professionals.

GLOBALG.A.P. FA-CAP is designed to facilitate and promote global capacity growth by:

1. Defining on-farm food safety and G.A.P. consulting as a profession

2. Defining the professional requirements to become a “GLOBALG.A.P. Farm Assurer”

3. Working with local partners to establish the necessary educational infrastructure to train potentials

4. registering and continuously training existing farm assurers and thereby ensuring that the value of the GloBAlG.A.P. brand is maintained and strengthened

FA-CAP’s educational approach is to build students’ theoretical knowledge and provide practical/vocational training. It will be based on close cooperation with local institutions, which will provide the necessary theoretical knowledge, and private partners (farms, consulting firms, certification bodies), which will provide the practical learning components.

fA-cAP chinA: G.A.P. eXcellence soon AVAilABle to Millions of fArMers

In 2012, the DEG (Deutsche Entwicklungsgesellschaft mbH) granted GLOBALG.A.P. funds to start “FA-CAP China”, a project slated to run until 2014. Building local professional capacity quickly in China will help ensure that millions of Chinese farmers have access to trusted professionals that can train them to meet international G.A.P. standards.

Lessons learned from this project will be transferred to other countries throughout the world as GloBAlG.A.P. continues to roll out fA-cAP in other locations. the goal is to establish “The GLOBALG.A.P. Farm Assurer” as a univer-sally recognized brand that communicates a high level of competence and integrity.

GLOBALG.A.P. Farm Assurers are independent onsite advisors and consultants who walk producers through the necessary steps to achieve GLOBALG.A.P. Certification. Farm assurers are expert professionals with extensive experience from a variety of sectors in the agricultural supply chain. They are equipped with first-hand knowl-edge about the GLOBALG.A.P. System, and their work is grounded in excellent training, extensive experience and a high commitment to Good Agricultural Practice.

The Farm Assurer Program is open to a variety of stakeholders in the agricultural supply chain that include consultants, universities, marketing boards, packers, aggregators, traders and food hubs, who all benefit from advising the producers they work with and helping them upgrade their Good Agricultural Practice.

Integrity means traceability, validation and transparency. That’s the foundation of GLOBALG.A.P. Certification and the GloBAlG.A.P. database is where it all comes together.

An Internet-based worldwide platform for certification management and related services, the GloBAlG.A.P. Database stores and connects the certification and assessment data of more than 123,000 farms in over 111 countries, making it one of the largest online sources for validated farm data on food safety and sustainability. More than 125 GLOBALG.A.P. approved certification bodies around the globe use it to register and manage their clients’ certification data.

The GLOBALG.A.P. Database is an important part of the organization’s comprehensive Integrity Program.

Reliable certification information, linked to other trace-ability data in the food supply chain, is key to proper quality management. GLOBALG.A.P.’s innovative and flexible IT solutions offer this by linking up effectively with the existing IT systems for producers, marketing organizations, traders and retailers.

The new set of Benchmarking Regulations for Version 4 of our IFA Standard, developed in 2011, was released and became obligatory in 2012, prompting a re-benchmarking process for 19 GLOBALG.A.P. benchmarked schemes op-erating in 30 different countries. For benchmarking against GLOBALG.A.P. IFA V4 the process has been modified to allow more stakeholder involvement.

Most of the schemes and checklists benchmarked against GLOBALG.A.P. IFA Version 3 have applied for renewal of their recognition against GloBAlG.A.P. ifA Version 4. To date, four of these schemes and checklists have been successfully re-benchmarked. Schemes that were still in the process by end of 2012 are expected to achieve recognition by early 2013.

ikB Veal and swissGAP fruechte, Gemuese und kartoffeln applied for benchmarking for the first time and are currently in the benchmarking process. ChinaGAP, which was already recognized for fruit and vegetables and combinable crops, has extended its scope of recognition to include tea and flowers & ornamentals.

GLOBALG.A.P. Benchmarking recognizes and supports local initiatives, harmonizes common and effective Good Agricultural Practice and so simplifies certification and reduces the high costs of unnecessary duplication. Developed to share common objectives with other certifica-tion system owners around the globe with respect to safe and sustainable production, GLOBALG.A.P. Benchmarking builds trust and transparency.

The GLOBALG.A.P. benchmarking process compares G.A.P. certification systems worldwide against the GLOBALG.A.P. System, which includes certification rules (General Regula-tions) and Control Points and Compliance Criteria (CPCC) of any of its (sub)-scopes.

durinG the BenchMArkinG Process, GloBAlG.A.P.:• Verifies and evaluates the integrity of the applicant

scheme against the GloBAlG.A.P. rules on food safety, environment, workers’ health and safety, animal welfare, etc. it conducts a document review where the appli-cant scheme is compared to the GLOBALG.A.P. norma-tive documents. in addition to the document review, GLOBALG.A.P. offers its members the chance to partici-pate in a peer review and so contribute their insights.

• Validates the applicant’s normative documents and its implementation on-site in the field. GLOBALG.A.P. conducts an on-site assessment of a producer and/or the quality management system (QMS) of a producer group.

• Conducts a benchmark committee review. Composed of independent experts representing the producer and retail/food service industries, the bench-mark committee finally recommends a recognition level for applicant schemes.

GloBAlG.A.P. offers two leVels of BenchMArkinG recoGnition:Equivalent: standards and schemes that fully conform to the GloBAlG.A.P. system (General regulations Gr and Control Points and Compliance Criteria CPCCs). There are two types: • Equivalent Scheme: These are schemes with their own

G.A.P. and scheme management system that are rec-ognized by GloBAlG.A.P. as fully conforming with the GloBAlG.A.P. cPccs and Gr.

• Approved Modified Checklist (AMC): These are embedded checklists with their own G.A.P. require-ments that are recognized by GloBAlG.A.P. as fully conforming with the GloBAlG.A.P. cPccs and use the GloBAlG.A.P. Gr as scheme management rules for certification.

Resembling: standards and schemes that conform to the GloBAlG.A.P. system to a large extent, with some exceptions. These schemes may develop add-on modules to bridge the gap and thus enable their producers to obtain GloBAlG.A.P. recognition.

Kakuzi Limited cultivates, manufactures and markets tea, grows and markets avocados, grows pineapple and macadamia and is involved in livestock farming and forestry development. One of their major contributions to advancing Good Agricultural and social Practices in kenya is that they provide their employees with housing, medical care, water and support with education and environmental protection.

All of their 1,300 employees and their direct dependents of around 6,500 people are housed on Kakuzi land. Free housing, constructed and maintained by the company,

is organized into villages with each village having 5 to 90 houses, all with running, fresh potable water, waste man-agement and sanitation facilities. Kakuzi maintains nursery schools and day care centers providing free education to the children of employees, dependents and the surrounding communities, following a strict code of not using child labor in their operations. It also offers scholarships, bursaries and stipends and provides funds to establish and improve schools near their plantations. To ensure year-round food availability for their employees, Kakuzi initiated a Kitchen Garden program that encourages employees to cultivate the area around their houses and plant indigenous vegetables organically and sustainably. As a result of this initiative, a happy workforce has emerged with employee productivity rising and malnutrition non-existent. this in turn translates into reduced sick leave from parents and improved class

attendance rates for school pupils. The cost of maintaining the property’s large lawns has been replaced by a food and income-generating program. With the extra income from the sale of vegetables from the kitchen gardens, employees can afford to improve their lifestyles e.g. by buying bicycles for clean transport. Kakuzi is now rolling out this initiative to the surrounding community.

We know that if we can improve and measure the household livelihood status of our own employees’ families and their dependents, we can set local goals for improving the lives of the neighboring community.
