PORTLAND, OR - There are so many activities to look forward to in the summertime, and GLOBALG.A.P. North America’s new free webinar series is one of them. The series highlights the often untapped value farmers can derive from the Integrated Farm Assurance (IFA) standard.
The flagship GLOBALG.A.P. IFA standard is globally recognized for its robust food safety certification at farm level, a press release stated.
