This book was released on 2001 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Demand for non-genetically modified crops and their derivatives has led to a number of 'identity preserved' systems to help the supply of such goods. The systems ensure that the product is traceable, and the integrity of the product is maintained, through the supply chain. This standard is based on the current best practice in sourcing identity preserved soya and maize. It is divided into three sections: risk analysis, operational standards, and sampling and analysis, which all begin with a statement of intent that must be adhered to. The principles established in this document, for these crops, will be applied in developing standards for other products.
