Prepare the enterprise for organic certification
Assessment tool
Version 1.0
Issue Date: June 2024
This unit applies to farmers who are preparing a production enterprise for compliance with the Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service (AQIS), accredited certification bodies and the National Standard for Organic and Biodynamic Produce.
This unit covers the preparation of the enterprise for organic certification and defines the standard required to: identify requirements for organic certification and apply them to one's enterprise; identify critical points in supply chain at which the organic integrity of one's product may be compromised; implement and monitor effective risk management for those parts of supply chain under one's control; identify practices and strategies to minimise the risk of contamination and non conformance with organic standards; develop an operational plan for conversion to organic production.
