Draft Sustainable Agriculture Standard to be Introduced
An effort to develop a sustainable agriculture ANSI (American
National Standards Institute) standard was launched in October. The
"Sustainable Agriculture Practice Standard for Food, Fiber and
Biofuel Crop Producers and Agricultural Product Handlers and
Processors" (SCS-001: Draft Standard for Trial Use) will be
introduced February 4 in a teleconference. The Leonardo Academy, an
ANSI-accredited Standards Development Organization, is assembling a
balanced, multi-stakeholder group to participate in this transparent,
consensus-building standard setting process. A Stakeholder Dialogue
Meeting is set for February 29, in Arlington, Virginia. Registration
information for both events and support documentation on the standard
development process are available online.
