Advantage Good Agricultural Practices

Advantage Good Agricultural Practices is a voluntary program for both crop and livestock farms. It takes a whole farm approach to food safety. That means you can apply the practices to any farm, any size, no matter what production methods or products you produce. If you have a multi-commodity farm, you can follow the Advantage program using one manual and keep one set of records.

Why Advantage?

• You'll always be ready for a food safety audit.
• You can use one set of practices across your operation. That means just one set of records to keep.
• You can custom-design your food safety program for your farm and determine the practices that apply to your operation.

When you join Advantage, you will get:

• Tools to identify risks on your farm
• Practices to manage the risks and tips to help you implement them
• Templates to maintain one set of records for your entire operation
