Red Tractor-Assured Produce Standard

The Red Tractor – Assured Produce scheme (AP) is directed by an independently chaired management board that includes producers, processors and supermarket representatives.

The grower producing crops in accordance with the scheme standards can confidently sell his produce to any supermarket or processor buyer. This saves him time and costs. In the absence of Assured Produce the grower would have to meet the requirements of a range of competing and potentially conflicting commercial standards.

A successful assessment by PAI will ensure that your Assured Produce certificate is issued by a widely respected and recognised certification body using only assessors who are highly experienced in your industry sector.
