Organic Trade Association launches fraud prevention program
The program represents a major step by the organic industry to fight fraud.
The Organic Trade Association said it launched the Organic Fraud Prevention Solutions program. Organic businesses may now voluntarily pre-enroll in the program to help minimize or eliminate organic fraud both inside and outside of the United States.
The new program is based on the Organic Trade Association's tested and completed “Organic Fraud Prevention Guide,” which provides businesses engaged in organic trade with a risk-based process for developing and implementing organic fraud mitigation measures.
