Quality Assurance System
 

     The BioRich Organic Fertilizer is considered as one of the main organic inputs in all Alter Trade Foundation Inc. (ATFI) supported areas. As part of the production system's Quality Assurance System (QAS), the Institute for Marketology (IMO) carries out annual inspection to ensure the system's compliance to Naturland standards, the United States Department of Agriculture-National Organic Programme (USDA-NOP) Final Rule, and Regulation European Economic Council (EEC) No. 2092/91.

     The above-mentioned standards would normally set control measures on formulation and raw materials. It could also pertain to several production parameters such as carbon-nitrogen ratio (C/N), moisture content (MC), and heap temperature.

     Aside from these certifying body standards, Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points standards were also studied and applied to the system. This approach entails process flow analysis that focuses on the probable hazards a certain production step would have and how this can be controlled.
