Do they have any science whatever behind those recommends? I haven't been to GAP training: the only sessions I've seen offered take two full days plus travel time and hotel room as they're nowhere near here, and I'm not selling through any route that requires this. (I have downloaded and will look through some of the National GAPS materials from the Cornell.edu web site.) I was just at a discussion meeting for proposed FDA produce handling standards, and I didn't hear anything there about increasing the manure intervals. I did here (there and elsewhere) that some private GAP programs may be requiring things that are likely to do no good and very likely do considerable harm. Do you actually need GAP certification for your particular 2010 expected sales methods? and, if so, do you need to get it through that specific program? If not, I'd think twice about not using the field because of a statement made at that one session. -- Rivka; Finger Lakes NY, Zone 5 mostly Fresh-market organic produce, small scale |
