GLOBALG.A.P. Integrated Farm Assurance (IFA) Standard v6
Crop production: propagation material, GMOs, soil and substrate, fertilizers, water, integrated pest management (FV-GFS 26 to 31) – GLOBALG.A.P. Integrated Farm Assurance (IFA) Standard v6

GLOBALG.A.P. Integrated Farm Assurance (IFA) Standard v6 FV-GFS 30.01.01: FV-GFS 30.01.01 There is a risk assessment to assess food safety risks for pre- and postharvest water used.

A written food safety risk assessment of water used in indoor and outdoor production and postharvest covers at minimum: the water sources, identified on maps, photographs or drawings that show sources, fixtures and how water flows through the system including reuse, linked to site maps; past analysis results; when water is used by growth stage or postharvest step; physical, chemical and microbial contamination risk; delivery methods and cross contamination; contact with the crop; crop characteristics and stage; the quality of water used for fertilizer, PPP and postharvest applications; mitigation such as fencing against intrusion; water quality thresholds; effect on food safety and fitness for purpose; controls on water that is not meant for food production; and, for postharvest water that touches product, a minimum of one test in each season or certification cycle, sampled close to where it is applied, even for municipal supplies. The assessment is reviewed every year and whenever operational changes alter the risk.
