Welcome to GLOBALGAP

GLOBALGAP is a private sector body that sets voluntary standards for the
certification of production processes of agricultural (including
aquaculture) products around the globe.
The GLOBALGAP standard is primarily designed to reassure consumers about how food is produced on the farm by minimising detrimental environmental impacts of farming operations, reducing the use of chemical inputs and ensuring a responsible approach to worker health and safety as well as animal welfare.
GLOBALGAP serves as a practical manual for Good Agricultural Practice
(G.A.P.) anywhere in the world. The basis is an equal partnership of
agricultural producers and retailers who wish to establish efficient
certification standards and procedures.
The GLOBALGAP website is a comprehensive knowledge base for all
interested parties: producers, suppliers, retailers, journalists and
consumers. With its clear and easy navigation www.globalgap.org
incorporates exhaustive information on the GLOBALGAP standard and its
modules and applications.
