Certification of Agricultural Best Practices Sample Clauses

Certification of Agricultural Best Practices. Members of the Certification of Agricultural Best Practices (CABP) project team began their field activities in the early part of the 3rd quarter of FY 2009. As indicated in the CABP project work plan, the Certification and Pest Control Coordinators began their activities during this quarter by visiting PRODEL coffee and cacao anchor firms and producer groups in the field in an effort to construct an implementation strategy in direct coordination with program beneficiaries. From these visits, the team produced an initial assessment of the target population to meet the main goals for CABP to include 500 fully certified hectares of cacao and coffee and another 1,500 hectares with certification processes in progress. After initial assessments with producers, the CABP technical team has focused its efforts on developing Internal Control Systems for cacao and coffee producers that will allow participating farmers to achieve the goal of certification. The Rainforest Alliance certification program representative in Ecuador, C&D was awarded the contract to perform assessment audits, certification audits and training workshops for the CABP component of PRODEL. The implementation of the C&D work plan will be supervised and coordinated with the CABP team during the 4th quarter of FY 2009. In addition, the CABP team selected Bio Control Systems (BCS) OKO-Garantie to perform organic certification activities with cacao and coffee producers. The BCS contract is expected to be signed within the first two weeks of the 4th quarter of FY 2009.
