At Farm
Level |
|
|
|
|
End-to-end traceability of each shipment up to individual farmer level is ensured through our
Internal Control System (ICS) |
|
|
We work closely with farmers and methodically collect details of each farmer and field, and conduct individual risk assessments |
|
|
Detailed contracts are drawn up
and signed with the farmers.
These contracts comprehensively detail the practices to be followed by the farmer and how Arvind will be auditing them |
|
|
Self Help Groups (SHGs) of 15-20 farmers are formed. These SHGs
are encouraged and facilitated
to create awareness, share information and train on new and existing cultivation methods. This peer camaraderie injects collective responsibility and ensures adherence to prescribed practices |

Produce at village level is grouped using Warehouse Receipt Systems and identified by unique token numbers when transported to the processing unit |
|

Raw material (RM) lot is created based on Finished Goods lot quantity and issued to processing units only after being allotted with a unique RM lot number |
|
|
Finished Good (FG) batch is tested by Eurofins, Bengaluru (random sample drawn from 10% of bags) and identified by a FG Lot number |
