CAPACITY BUILDING

Spreading knowledge of good agricultural practices and facilitating their implementation on the ground

The GLOBALG.A.P. Academy and our capacity building projects with local partners are vital to our mission of achieving safe, sustainable agriculture worldwide.  We channel information and knowledge through our trainers, experts, and large network of independent consultants (GLOBALG.A.P. licensed Farm Assurers) to reach producers. Producers are then in a better position to make informed commercial decisions and receive professional guidance on their way towards certification and new market opportunities. 

The GLOBALG.A.P. Academy

The GLOBALG.A.P. Academy offers workshops and training programs to transfer our extensive certification experience, knowledge, and expertise to those who need it.  Targeted, up-to-date trainings are offered in various locations around the world. Due to the coronavirus pandemic in 2020, most trainings were held online.

GLOBALG.A.P. BENCHMARKING

GLOBALG.A.P. recognizes other standards as equivalent. This form of benchmarking avoids the need for duplicate audits and simplifies certification for producers. In turn, this reduces costs, administration, time, and effort for producers, suppliers, and retailers – contributing to higher engagement in safe and sustainable agriculture,

GLOBALG.A.P. offers two levels of benchmarking recognition – equivalent schemes/checklists (full conformance) and resembling schemes (incomplete but substantial conformance). By gaining GLOBALG.A.P. approval, benchmarked schemes and checklists also enjoy international recognition – a valuable advantage in the highly competitive global market.

CAPACITY BUILDING PROJECTS

Reviewing GLOBALG.A.P. in Jamaica

Reviewing GLOBALG.A.P. in Jamaica

The Ministry of Industry, Commerce, Agriculture and Fisheries (MICAF) in Jamaica commissioned GLOBALG.A.P. to review the effectiveness, cost efficiency, and sustainability of the government’s approach to supporting the implementation of the GLOBALG.A.P. IFA standard and to assist in developing a framework for the implementation and monitoring of GLOBALG.A.P. in Essex Valley and additional sites. The framework should also support the long-term training of beneficiaries by recognized agricultural institutions in Jamaica, in keeping with the requirements of the GLOBALG.A.P. IFA standard.

The review revealed that although there are several modern agroparks and product handling units in the region, production had not yet begun. 30 people were trained on the GLOBALG.A.P. IFA standard and evaluated based on the Farm Assurer qualification requirements. As there were no available non-certified farms, GLOBALG.A.P. carried out pre-audit farm assessments (standard product) at four already-certified sites in order to gather further practical on-site experience and to see how the GLOBALG.A.P. IFA standard operates in practice.

With the objective of making G.A.P. principles more accessible and easy-to-implement, GLOBALG.A.P. developed three new instructional G.A.P. in Action videos on post-harvest hygiene, plant protection products, and waste management. In addition, a training concept was developed for use by the key organizations working directly with producers to familiarize them with the G.A.P. methodology and standard requirements.

The final assessment report included recommendations on how to further facilitate GLOBALG.A.P. implementation in Jamaica by making use of different entry tools, such as localg.a.p., directing available funds towards awareness-raising, expanding producer capacities, and improving the institutional framework through the creation of collaboration platforms such as a GLOBALG.A.P. National Technical Working Group.

Increasing Sierra Leone’s Competitiveness through Enhanced Trade Compliance and Productivity
Header_960_210_UNIDO_Sierra Leone
UNIDO_Logo

The United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) commissioned GLOBALG.A.P. with the development of a mapping and diagnostic activity plan to formulate key interventions along the cassava value chain. Results were to be used as a baseline for further activities which serve the overall objective of increasing productivity and reducing post-harvest loss through the adoption of good agricultural practices and eventually achieving GLOBALG.A.P. certification to access export markets.

For this diagnostic activity, a GLOBALG.A.P. expert went on a scoping mission together with UNIDO and a cassava product expert to identify capacities, challenges, and needs – both at farm level and for other actors along the value chain.

Discussions held with farmers during this mission indicated a lack of on-farm awareness of good agricultural practices and certification as prerequisites for local and export trade in cassava and cassava products. Most farmers did not practice improved planting techniques or basic on-farm hygiene and sanitation. The hygiene situation at processing factories was similar. With regard to GLOBALG.A.P., no consulting services or working groups were available in the country, resulting in limited information flows and accessibility.

The findings of this mission were summarized in a report together with concrete recommendations for further activities and interventions to facilitate GLOBALG.A.P. implementation and compliance.

Mainstreaming GLOBALG.A.P. in India

GLOBALG.A.P. partnered with GIZ’s Green Innovation Centers (GIC) India in promoting Good Agricultural Practices and developing adequate solutions to benefit all stakeholders in the agricultural value chains in India – from small-holder producer to final consumer.

Part of the joint activities was to assess the preparedness of small-holder farmers for adopting GLOBALG.A.P./localg.a.p. requirements and practices. GLOBALG.A.P. experts assessed 24 farms that were already being supported by GIC, as well as 10 non-supported control farms. The assessments revealed that producers supported by GIC used less chemical plant protection products, but on average had an overall lower profitability due to higher costs for alternative plant protection measures. In addition, stakeholder consultations showed that Indian horticulture supply chains are highly fragmented and price sensitive.

The initial farm assessments and stakeholder meetings provided the project partners with a better idea about the current status of farms in India and major challenges they face, therefore offering  valuable insights for developing a roadmap for the implementation of Good Agricultural Practices and labelling options. These are to be discussed in a GLOBALG.A.P. stakeholder workshop which is planned for mid-2020.

Aid for Trade – GLOBALG.A.P. Goes to Latvia

In October 2019, GLOBALG.A.P. partnered with the Aid for Trade project managed by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP). The aim of the partnership was to allow selected experts from the agricultural value chain to gain a deeper understanding of the international trading system for fruit & vegetables as well as quality and safety requirements, to build capacities on practical aspects of GLOBALG.A.P. implementation, and to facilitate business linkages with Latvian importers and retailers to promote exports of Uzbek agro-products.

GLOBALG.A.P. organized a five-day study tour to Latvia as one of the key European markets for Uzbek exports. With its diverse program, the tour provided a representative picture of national quality infrastructures and international trade, while also offering very specific insights into the daily work of the different organizations and companies. The program included visits to the Latvian Rural Advisory and Training Centre (GLOBALG.A.P. country partner in Latvia), a GLOBALG.A.P. certified farm, a certification body, retail chains and importers, laboratory and veterinary services, and an agricultural university.

Furthermore, the 10 Uzbek delegates expanded their business network with the representatives of key organizations and companies in Latvia who could become potential business partners. The tour thus contributed to the promotion of Uzbek agro-exports and further development of the Uzbek quality infrastructure and trade opportunities.

CERTIFICATION BODIES

GLOBALG.A.P. relies on independent third-party certification bodies to issue certificates. Only GLOBALG.A.P. approved certification bodies (CBs) may conduct GLOBALG.A.P. audits on farms, issue GLOBALG.A.P. certificates to producers, and update the GLOBALG.A.P. Database.

We would like to thank these CBs for being a valuable part of the GLOBALG.A.P. system and recognize their continued efforts to improve performance.
