13th May 2010
AFS has completed a harmonisation project to deliver a more joined up approach to the Red Tractor Farm Assurance Schemes.
AFS has completed a harmonisation project to deliver a more joined up approach to the Red Tractor Farm Assurance Schemes. From 1st April 2010, the scheme's farmers and growers have implemented standards for the first time aligned across all sectors.
To cement this more coherent approach, AFS has re-branded the standards as the 'Red Tractor Farm Assurance Scheme', underpinning the direct link to marketing of products under the Red Tractor logo.
All inspections carried out from 1st April 2010, will be against the revised Red Tractor Scheme Standards.
The Assured Dairy Farms Scheme Standard 2010 can be found be clicking on the link or going to the Publications section of the website.
