Emphasize that organic producers are the first responsible persons for the quality of organic products and bear primary legal responsibility, while certification bodies bear joint liability.
- Strengthen standardized management of certification bodies and organic product testing institutions, and enhance the effectiveness of organic product certification and the accuracy of organic product testing results.
The convening of this meeting laid the foundation for the revision of the Measures. The promulgation and implementation of the new Measures will further standardize the order of China's organic product market, rectify various undesirable practices in organic product production, accelerate the pace of China's organic industry gradually aligning with the world, and ensure that consumers can buy reliable and safe organic products.Artikel berasal dariFOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/ms/11240/
