Agricultural Services

Farm assurance guarantees that end-consumers can be sure that the food they purchase from the stores is safe to eat and produced with respect to the standards. It is as well highly beneficial to the farmers to protect their products and brands and helps them support a sustainable business that can keep up with or exceed competition. NSF uses its knowledge, field experience and modern audits systems and softwares to make this happen.

NSF provides certification, auditing, consulting, training, farm services and laboratory testing services for agricultural businesses, farmers and growers.

We are amongst the leading certifiers for international, national and retailer standards such as the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) benchmarked standards GLOBALG.A.P., CanadaGAP, SQF, BRCGS and FSSC22000.

Our teams have a profound and practical background and expertise in all agricultural areas and the activities that assists with the production of food from your farm gate to the production facility. These include animal health and welfare, food safety, traceability, and environmental issues.

Accredited Certification Services

We provide accredited inspection and certification services to most of the assurance schemes such as GLOBALG.A.P. and other GFSI benchmarked standards.

LEAF Marque Certification

Farmers who use Integrated Farm Management principles to improve the value and sustainability of their farms in terms of food production can become LEAF Marque certified.

LEAF Marque is governed by seven key areas: Soil management, Resilience of cropping systems, Water use and quality, Use of energy sources and efficiency, Waste management, Livestock management, Enhancing the management of native habitats and biodiversity.

By addressing these areas, you will be able to monitor your performance, identify strengths and weaknesses, and set targets for improvement across your business. Major retailers across Europe are asking all the suppliers to achieve LEAF Marque certification.

To become LEAF Marque certified, you need to be certified to other schemes, such as GLOBALG.A.P., Red Tractor Assured or Horticultural schemes, e.g., OHAS.

If you are beginning your journey with certification to these schemes or wish to transfer to NSF, we are ready to support you.

Other Non-Certified Services

We also offer tailored services to your business, like standards development, consulting, training and support in all agricultural activities from your farm to the food production facilities.

We can also give you support on responsible sourcing involving animal welfare.

Use of NSF consulting services or attending NSF training sessions does not provide an advantage, nor is it linked in any way to the granting of certification.
