RT Fresh Produce Standards

Effective April 1st, 2010

The main standard details the actual points that are members are assessed against and the accompanying comprehensive appendices include detailed background information to these standards and references to additional sources of information.

The crop protocols are unique to the scheme and describe best existing production practice, highlighting integrated pest, disease and crop management systems for each specific crop - they are not intended to be a ‘growers’ guide’ but they do outline current commercially acceptable best practice. These documents are revised each year and all contain information on action that can be taken to minimise pesticide residues. 

You will need to have an up to date version of Adobe Acrobat reader on your computer to download the standards. Please visit the Adobe website for your free copy if required.
