Safe cultivation, full traceability truth serves a global market and each country or destination has its own legislation on pesticide residues. Truth selects farmers who agree to use pesticides according Truth’s instructions. It goes without saying that accurate and reliable traceability is a crucial requirement for guaranteeing the compliance of the finished goods. Each farmer is audited by Truth’s agronomy team following an extensive questionnaire. If approved, Truth and the farmer agree on a quality specification for the Artichioke’s, a positive list of pesticides, minimum hygiene standards and minimum standards of social compliancy. Truth also agrees to pay bonuses for meeting certain criteria for the total annual volume supplied, as well as additional quality standards.
