Global G.A.P.<\/strong> certifies fruit and vegetables<\/strong> and guarantees the application of best practices in agriculture<\/strong> and allows us to qualify agricultural production in large-scale distribution and international markets.<\/p>\n[\/spb_text_block] [blank_spacer height=”85px” width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”] [spb_text_block title=”INFORMATIONS” pb_margin_bottom=”no” pb_border_bottom=”no” el_class=”info” width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”]\n

\"\"GLOBAL G.A.P.<\/strong><\/a> is an international organization, participated by the main distribution groups, established with the aim of standardizing voluntary standards for Good Agricultural Practices<\/strong>\u00a0(Good Agricultural Practice<\/a><\/strong>) applicable globally.<\/p>\n

The main requirements covered by the GlobalG.A.P standard are:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Company traceability<\/li>\n
  2. Environmental aspects (waste management, environmental impact, soil management, fertilizer use)<\/li>\n
  3. Health, safety of company workers and related working conditions<\/li>\n
  4. Product (application of pesticides, irrigation, integrated defense techniques, product collection and handling methods)<\/li>\n
  5. Process controls and correct business management.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The GLOBAL G.A.P. certification applies both to individual companies (option 1)<\/strong> and to Producer Groups (option 2): Cooperatives, Consortia, Producer Organization<\/strong> etc.
    \nThe latter is also required to create a documented Quality System<\/strong>, which allows the relationships between the producer members to be adjusted correctly and to ensure that all operate in compliance with the requirements of the standard.<\/p>\n

    GLOBALG.A.P. provides for annual surveillance inspections<\/strong> of all certified producers, to which extraordinary inspections can be added without prior notice. The standard pays particular attention to the health and safety of workers.<\/p>\n

    ICEA is accredited for the issue of the certification<\/strong> of fresh fruit and vegetable productions (field of application “Crops<\/strong>” – subfield “Fruit and Vegetables<\/strong>“).<\/p>\n

    From 2019 it is mandatory to apply the V5_2 version of the standard.<\/strong><\/p>\n[\/spb_text_block] [blank_spacer height=”85px” width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”] [spb_text_block title=”CERTIFICATION PROCESS” pb_margin_bottom=”no” pb_border_bottom=”no” el_class=”iter” width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”]\n
