GENERAL BACKGROUND INFORMATION

1. What is a National Technical Working Group (NTWG)?


Artikel I. Think Global, Act Local

That’s the philosophy at the heart of GLOBALG.A.P.’s activities.

This is why GLOBALG.A.P. members set up National Technical Working Groups (NTWGs) in several countries; to help adopt GLOBALG.A.P.’s
universal standard on a local scale. National Technical Working Groups are established voluntarily by GLOBALG.A.P. members in countries where
there is a need for clarification of implementation of GLOBALG.A.P.

NTWGs identify specific local adaptation and implementation challenges and develop guidelines, known as National Interpretation Guidelines. These
guidelines provide guidance to certification bodies and producers on how to best implement and inspect (audit/check compliance) against
GLOBALG.A.P. Control Points and Compliance Criteria at a national level.

The working groups are also a valuable source of qualified information for GLOBALG.A.P. By tapping into national networks of experts and stakeholders,
GLOBALG.A.P. gains extensive knowledge about the different legal and structural conditions that exist around the world.

The NTWGs work in close cooperation with the GLOBALG.A.P. Secretariat and the Technical Committees, who approve the guidelines developed by this growing
number of groups.

2. What is a National Interpretation Guideline (NIG) and how is it developed?


A National Interpretation Guideline (NIG) is a document, which provides guidance on the implementation and auditing the compliance of a country interpretation
of the GLOBALG.A.P. Compliance Criteria (CC) at a national level. The GLOBALG.A.P. Compliance Criteria are the base on which the country interpretation is
developed. The GLOBALG.A.P. Control Points (CP) are fixed and are not to be changed or interpreted.
<TURKEY> INTERPRETATION GUIDELINE
SECTION: BACKGROUND
IFA Version: 5.2
Page 4 of 237

The country interpretation in a NIG document is always in conjunction with the GLOBALG.A.P. CPCCs and cannot stand alone. Where there is no country-specific
addition to the CC, which serves for better understanding and implementation, the original CC are valid and should not be repeated in the country interpretation
column.

Once approved, the country interpretation of the compliance criteria shall be audited together with the GLOBALG.A.P. Control Points and Compliance Criteria. The
country interpretation does not replace the original CC, but it is a clarification of the latter and is in addition to the GLOBALG.A.P. CPCCs.

The NIG is developed by a National Technical Working Group and goes through a transparent approval procedure and a Peer Review with relevant stakeholders in
the country. After approval, the National Interpretation Guideline becomes a normative GLOBALG.A.P. document. This implies that all Certification Bodies that are
working in the respective country have to include this guideline within their certification procedures. It will also be indicated on the GLOBALG.A.P. certificate that
a NIG has been implemented and that the inspection took that into account.

GLOBALG.A.P. can withdraw or revise the National Interpretation Guidelines at any time on an individual point basis if the global integrity of the standard is
challenged.

See GR V5 Part I – 2. Normative Documents e) National Interpretation Guidelines

See the new NIG approval process flowchart here.

SECTION: BACKGROUND
IFA Version: 5.2

1. Submission: The NTWG submits the National Interpretation Guideline to the GLOBALG.A.P. Secretariat (email to: ntwg@globalgap.org) for technical
review and approval. It is recommended to check with the GLOBALG.A.P. Secretariat beforehand, which is the latest template for the respective
NIG to be used. GLOBALG.A.P. has highlighted the Control Points and Compliance Criteria where there is reference to legislation and
NTWGs should check these to make reference to relevant local legislation.
2. Technical Review: The GLOBALG.A.P. Secretariat starts the internal technical review of the submitted guideline within two weeks after receiving the application.
The GLOBALG.A.P. technical reviewer checks the guideline thoroughly in a timeframe of one month.
If any technical or formal discrepancy is detected in this review, the guideline is returned to the NTWG, which has one month to propose the amendments. The
GLOBALG.A.P. Secretariat shall summarize all the consultation responses in an internal technical review report (ITR). This report shall evaluate the proposal of
amendments, if any.

After a second review, the GLOBALG.A.P. technical reviewer checks if the NTWG has implemented all comments. If there are additional comments, they will be
sent to the NTWG within one month. The NTWG has again one month to implement the changes.

3. Peer Review: When the technical review requirements are met, the National Interpretation Guideline shall be subject to a peer review for a period of four
weeks. The peer review shall be by written consultation with the relevant GLOBALG.A.P. stakeholders, GLOBALG.A.P. members and certification bodies in the
respective country or continent. The consulted parties shall be invited to make written technical comments in English only and must provide justification. The
comments shall be sent to ntwg@globalgap.org.
If any technical or formal discrepancy is detected in this review, the guideline is returned to the NTWG, which shall have one month to propose amendments
to the GLOBALG.A.P. Secretariat.

4. Approval by TCs: A final peer review report shall be prepared by the GLOBALG.A.P. Secretariat, which shall summarize and evaluate the peer review comments
and the proposals of amendments, if any.
The final National Interpretation Guideline and peer review report shall be submitted to the relevant Technical Committee for provisional approval. The relevant
Technical Committees shall make one of the following recommendations to the GLOBALG.A.P. Secretariat in their Technical Committee meeting or by written
procedure:

a. Guideline is recommended for approval

b. Rejection of the guideline – reasons given.

5. Final approval and publication: After the provisional approval of the Technical Committee(s), the GLOBALG.A.P. Secretariat finally approves the National
Interpretation Guideline. The following steps are taken by the GLOBALG.A.P. Secretariat in order to inform all relevant stakeholders:

• Uploading the NIG and announcement on the GLOBALG.A.P. website


• Informing all GLOBALG.A.P. members in the relevant country
• Informing all GLOBALG.A.P. approved certification bodies in the relevant country
• Informing all accreditation bodies in the relevant country
• Uploading information on new interpretation guidelines to the CB Extranet and to the NTWG Extranet

6. What are the consequences after the approval and publication of a National Interpretation Guideline for:

Certification Body

• All Certification Bodies have to confirm the receipt of the approved National Interpretation Guideline.
• Certification Bodies have to inform all their clients about the National Interpretation Guideline.
• All Certification Bodies that are operating in the respective country have to include the guideline in their certification procedure within three months
after publication.
• After the period of three months, Certification Bodies can be sanctioned for not applying approved National Technical Interpretation Guidelines.
The Producers

• There will not be major changes in the daily practice of the producers. The guideline will rather facilitate the implementation, as it is adapted to the
national circumstances, legal regulations etc.
• Producers will be informed about the guideline via their certification bodies.
<TURKEY> INTERPRETATION GUIDELINE
SECTION: BACKGROUND
IFA Version: 5.2
Page 7 of 237

• Producers have to implement the GLOBALG.A.P. requirements in accordance with the National Interpretation Guideline within 3 months after
publication.

The Accreditation Bodies:

• All accreditation bodies have to confirm the receipt of the approved National Interpretation Guideline.
• Accreditation bodies have to make sure that all accredited certification bodies are applying the National Interpretation Guideline if they are
certifying in the concerned country within three months after publication.
• After a period of three months Certification Bodies can be sanctioned for not applying approved National Interpretation Guidelines.

The purpose of variety registration is to provide growers,


processors, retailers, and governments a means of oversight to
ensure that health and safety requirements are met, and that
information related to the identity of the variety is available to

the basic assurance that the starting material used conforms to the

CB 6 INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT


Integrated pest management (IPM) involves the careful
consideration of all available pest control techniques and the
subsequent integration of appropriate measures that discourage
the development of pest populations and keeps plant protection
products and other interventions to levels that are economically
justified and reduce or minimize risks to human health and the
environment. An IPM toolbox (Annex CB 2) has been developed to
provide alternative actions for the application of IPM techniques in
the commercial production of agricultural and horticultural crops.
Given the natural variation on pest development for the different
crops and areas, any IPM system shall be implemented in the
context of local physical (climatic, topographical etc.), biological
(pest complex, natural enemy complex, etc.), and economic
conditions.
