2. Certification Scoring: What is the required score on the Certification Audit?
GAPC Certification Standards are defined as Critical or Additional.
Critical Standards are aligned to current legal requirements or otherwise deemed necessary for the quality of the crop, or protection of the environment or workers.
Additional Standards are aligned to best practices in the industry.
Each Standard is assigned a point value. The point value is based on the risk to the supply chain that non-compliance could introduce.
