What is the PGS, and how does it work? PGS is a process of certifying organic products, which ensures that their production takes place in accordance with laid-down quality standards. The certification is in the form of a documented logo or a statement. This system is based on the active participation of farmers, consumers, rural advisors, local authorities: they all join to make decisions, to visit farms, to support each other and to check that farmers are producing according to Government Standard. PGS could be managed by the producer group themselves as first-party certification or can be managed by the trader, buying the products (second-party certification). This is in contrast to the third-party certification system where an independent body is responsible for certification. |
