ASC – Certified Sustainable Agriculture

ASC is a system developed by AAPRESID that certifies agricultural production under no-till farming, focusing on sustainability, traceability and continuous improvement. It is based on the application of Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) and technical monitoring of the production system. Control Union is authorized to audit and certify establishments under this scheme.

    About the standard

    The scheme validates the sustainable production process of a farm, regardless of its size or location. It requires implementing GAP, recording agronomic practices and measuring soil indicators. The certificate is valid for 3 years, with annual audits to ensure compliance and evolution of the system.

    Benefits

    The implementation of ASC provides the farmer with a clear work structure, with records, measurements and indicators that enable data-driven decision making. The orderly monitoring of agronomic practices functions as a real control panel that enhances operational efficiency and facilitates continuous improvement.

    ASC certification allows differentiation as a producer committed to sustainability, which enables access to special contracts with companies that value traceability, bonuses for responsible production, and positioning in markets with increasing environmental requirements.

    The certificate can be a key tool in leasing operations, purchase and sale of land or access to financing. In addition, it allows anticipating future regulations and participating in incentive schemes such as carbon credits or sustainability programs promoted by public and private organizations.
