2 CONTENTS WHY GAP? And WHAT GAP?...Background FFV exported to EU market: SPS and Constraint National GAP: public /private standard Case Study of GG group certification and the constraint Update Status of ThaiGAP domestic Conclusions

3 BACKGROUND WHY GAP? YEAR OF GAP BEGUN WHAT GAP? PUBLIC AND PRIVATE ROLES LOCAL CREATION TO GLOBAL CONSUMPTION Science and Technologies

9 RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS Public-private standard development: The crisis of mad cow disease or bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE)incidence in England and Ireland reported in 1980s,andpeaking in These incidenceshad great impact oneuropean community to launch Food Safety Law, which strictly required traceability systemto prevent and protect consumers from unsafe food. On December 2003, BSE has been alsofound in a dairy cow in state of Washington, USA, which forced the European communitiesto set their own standard to ensure that all food are safe, from farm to table. GLOBALGAP is one of the most influential private standards in the area of food safety, traceability and sustainability.

10 RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS Food safety control system : Government sectors under Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives promote GAP certificate which called Thai QGAP. Thai Q GAP for food crops was categorized in the scope of herbal/medicinal plants, field crops, cutting flowers, fruit,and horticulture crops.thai Agricultural Standard (TAS) of food crops or GAP food crops newly issued and announced for completely alignment with ASEAN GAP, the content consist of a pillar of food safety, quality, welfare and environmental concerns (TAS, 2013). GAP mentioned in TAS 2013 was grouped in 8 sections: 1. Water source, 2. Site History, 3. Pesticide usage, 4. Quality Management, 5. Harvesting and Produce Handling,6. Storage, transporting in farm, 7. Personnel

11 Procedures of Q-GAP 8. Record keeping 7. Harvest & post-harvest handling 6. Production process for quality produces 5. Product free from pest 4. Storage and transport 3. Chemical/ Pesticide application 2. Growing area 1. Water source (Taken from DOA)

15 Farm Advisor Infrastructure QMS Supporting fund Internal auditor Supplier/exporter Training Farmer group must be linked with exporters for GLOBALGAP standard certification

16 Investment costs for GLOBALGAP adoption

17 Farmers motivations to adopt GLOBALGAP Motivations N=59 % Increase the quality of the produce Enhance family s and farm workers health Make finding buyers easier Enhance management practices Decrease costs for chemicals Increase access to highvalue markets Buyer offered a purchase guarantee Buyer required GlobalGAP Enhance reputation Buyer offered a price premium Enhance bargaining power

18 WHAT TO BE TRAINED Food Safety Risk assessment: sources of contamination from any source, water resources, neighbors etc.. Hygiene implementation : make them understand the threat and the risk of contamination (our way of harvesting cannot be change and is dirty)

19 Environmental Management Waste management : no burning plastic, consequences of burning, why not, containers of potentially hazardous products, garbage, etc.. ) Water Management (included the general concept for producer group in water saving, water quality management, water footprint, etc.)

20 Produce Quality Cultivation techniques (improve soil structure) Harvesting methods (handling, no contamination, no hurting, nice) Fertilizer application and record (Should be every input, emphasizing for Organic, nutrient balance, Impact of surpass/overuse)

21 Management system Record keeping Internal assessment and corrective action (Role of ICS, importance of extension, moral aspect and Internal Inspections) Complaint procedure and Recall procedure

22 Integrated Pest Management (IPM) agronomists (Farm Advisor) can recommend farmers on pest management without using chemicals and reduce risk of low productivity. The topic includes prevention, monitoring, intervention, reducing use of chemical, pest and disease management for specific crops. All of this should be focused on organic methods

23 Case Study..Tangerine Citrus

24 GAP MRLs

29 Thai MRL CODEX

30 CONCLUSIONS AND SUGGESTIONS Scheme Owner: Thai Q GAP Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives Q GAP) THAIGAP: Thai Chamber of Commerce (THAIGAP). food safety, quality, worker health and welfare, and environment. traceability is strongly concerned for THAIGAP private standard with QR code. group certification and quality management system Require service providers, technical knowledge and training. The most significant factorfor2 GAP standards adoptions actually the sustainability of market or buyers (who require standard). Certification cost is a burden for smallholder farmer, therefore, it is recommended to evaluate risk and seek professional assistance for quality
