İTU — Türkiye: Scope and Application

Scope and current rules

İyi Tarım Uygulamaları (İTU) is a separate Turkish control and certification system under the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry’s legislation and instructions. It is not the same certificate as organic farming or GLOBALG.A.P. First identify products, production scope and applicable national requirements.

Activity information for the application

Apply to a ministry authorised control and certification body before production begins. Describe producers, plots, products and the production period. Assess previous land use, neighbouring activities and water sources; risks that cannot be controlled must be addressed at the initial decision stage.

Connect preparation to real production

Production records are essential. Connect fertiliser and plant protection applications, quantities, operators, irrigation and harvest. Determine analysis needs from the product, risks and current rules. A consultant’s preparation file does not replace the authorised body’s control.

Scope discussion and responsibilities

For a scope discussion with QRS, share activities, addresses, products and customer requirements. Verify the selected scheme’s body approval and scope in the official register. Preparation, independent assessment and the certification decision are separate stages.
