Grower Group

Grower Groups are organized group of farmers /producers who intend to produce organic products/engage in organic processes in accordance with the National Standards of Organic Production. The producers in the group must apply similar production systems and the farms should be in geographical proximity. Individual farms with land holding of 4 ha (10 acres) and above can also be a part of the group but will have to be inspected separately every year by EOPL. The total area of such farms shall be less than 50% of the total area of the group.

The grower group shall consist of minimum 25 and maximum 500 farmers. Processors and exporters/traders can own/ manage the Internal Control System (ICS) but will have to be inspected annually by EOPL. Separate certificates (Scope and Transaction Certificates) are required to be issued for the ICS, processors and traders to maintain the traceability of the product flow. EOPL will not certify if there is any ICS with 100% internal inspections are not conducted. The internal inspectors shall carry out at least 1 annual inspection visit to each individual operator including visits to field and facilities. In case the farmer group does not maintain an Internal Quality System as described in this chapter, the Certification Body shall inspect all the individual farms.

Input Approval

EOPL evaluates inputs used in organic production and confirms their compliance with the National Standards for Organic Production and the EOPL directives on the interpretation and implementation of the National Standards for Organic Production. Presently EOPL restricts its input approval scheme to fertilizers and soil conditioners, and to inputs related to crop protection.

The approval is based on an evaluation of the product documentation and on an inspection of the processing unit. Applicants need to submit a complete list of ingredients of the product and a list of processes involved in the manufacturing. They need to grant access to EOPL inspectors to the processing unit and the book keeping related to the product. EOPL guarantees full confidentiality in handling of all products and company information. EOPL deems the authority to draw samples for laboratory analysis of different products on case-by-case basis, the cost of which should be borne by the operator.

Processing

Processing is modification of raw agricultural products. Handling is selling, processing or packaging agricultural products. Organic processing and handling provides consumers with nutritious, high quality supplies of organic products and organic farmers with a market without compromise to the organic integrity of their products.

Processing certification is necessary whenever an organic product is processed in some way or another, and needs to be labeled for marketing as organic. Minimal modification as part of normal on-farm post harvest handling is permitted without processing certification. Minimal modification includes washing, filtering, cleaning, and trimming, bagging, boxing or labeling of produce.

Trading & Handling

This guidance provides clarification regarding the use of chlorine materials in organic production and handling. This guidance provides information to National Organic Program (NOP) certifying agents and to certified and exempt organic operations. The NOP is providing this guidance to clarify and ensure consistency in the use of chlorine products under the NOP regulations and in response to recommendations from the National Organic Standards Board (NOSB). The annotations limiting the use of chlorine in 7 CFR § 205.601(a)(2), § 205.603(a)(7), and § 205.605(b) of the National List of Allowed and Prohibited Substances (National List), do not align with a November 1995 NOSB recommendation on chlorine materials.

This annotation was originally crafted to acknowledge that levels of chlorine permitted in municipal drinking water were considered acceptable for organic food production and handling. The language used in the proposed NOP rule published in March 2000 did not include the terms “in direct crop or food contact” and “in flush water … that is applied to crops or fields.” The language used under § 205.605 (handling uses) only mentions use in disinfecting food contact surfaces, leading some handlers to question whether chlorine could be used in direct food contact
