National Programme for Organic Production (NPOP) certification
NPOP
certification is a system of process certification wherein an independent
organization reviews entire production, processing, handling, storage and
transport etc to ensure the compliance of organic standards. The process
typically includes comprehensive review of cultivation practices including land
management, usage of inputs, use of machinery, pest management and post harvest
in crops, rearing practices compatible to their natural behaviour, welfare of
animals, avoidance of synthetic feed additives and hormones and limited usage
of allopathic drugs and antibiotics in animal products and processing and
handling through document review and on-site physical inspection. All such
certified products bear the certification mark on their packaging to help
consumers and other buyers make educated purchasing decisions.
