3 Legislation of the European Union Within the EU, the F&V sector is regulated as part of the common organisation of agricultural markets. On quality standards, the relevant EU regulations are : Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 of 17 December 2013, establishing a common organisation of the markets in agricultural products Regulation (EU) No 543/2011 of 7 June 2011, laying down detailed rules in respect of the fruit and vegetables and processed fruit and vegetables sectors
4 Marketing standards 1 general marketing standard (GMS) : Minimum requirements completed with provisions on tolerances and labelling of the country of origin 10 specific marketing standards (SMS) on the most consumed produce within the EU: Apples; citrus fruit; kiwifruit; lettuces, curled leaves and broad-leaved endives; peaches and nectarines; pears; strawberries; sweet peppers; table grapes and tomatoes.
5 Marketing standards The application of the EU marketing standards is mandatory within the MS. EU standards are elaborated and/or reviewed at the EU level, by the institutions (European Commission and Parliament) in collaboration with the MS. The implementation of the UNECE standards is made on a voluntary basis. The trader can choose to label a quality class on the product.
6 Exemptions from the application of marketing standards By derogation, the following products shall not be required to conform to the marketing standards: From the field to the packing station On farm sales to the final consumer Destined for industrial processing Destined as animal feed Products having undergone a trimming or cutting making them ready to eat or kitchen ready
7 Conformity checks MS shall ensure that conformity checks are carried out selectively, based on a risk analysis, and with appropriate frequency, so as to ensure compliance with the marketing standards. The criteria for the risk assessment are as follow: approved traders or with internal self-checking procedures and/or an quality management system type of company (grower, importer, exporter, packer, wholesaler, retailer, etc.) history of compliance or non-compliance from past inspections in the last 3 years type of products traded: the priority is given to the 10 fruit and vegetables under SMS.
8 Conformity checks The application of these criteria leads to a mark defining 3 types of risks: low, medium and high. The higher the risk is, the more often the trader will be inspected. Member States shall set up a database on traders in F&V, which shall list traders involved in the marketing of F&V. In France, the trader database is updated after every inspection.
9 Risk Analysis
10 Risk Analysis
11 Approved traders Member States may authorize traders classified in the lowest risk category and providing special guarantees on conformity to marketing standards to use the specimen in Annex II in the labelling of each package at the stage of dispatch and/or to sign the conformity certificate.
12
13 Control procedures The inspectors choose the lots to be inspected based on the risk analysis described. The inspection system is the same whatever the level of trade. During the visit, the inspectors check in priority the SMS but also the GMS. They decide independently what they inspect depending on type of products available, the quantity of product, the season (beginning/end), storage time, etc. They should follow the methods of control defined in annex V of Regulation 543/2011 (reference to the OECD guidelines)
14 Non-Conformity In the case of non-conformities, officers issue certificates of non-conformity. The trader has to decide what to do with the lot depending what the problem is: class, size, presentation, labelling, maturity requirements, etc. If the holder does not act in accordance with what the inspector has said, the first mean of action is the early warning. But considering the gravity of the practice, other penalties/sanctions can be issued such a report and fine can be given by the court.
