Organic kiwifruit are protected by the BioGro certification system that gives retailers and consumers confidence that they are buying a genuine organically-grown kiwifruit. The process from application to final certification takes a minimum of three years – the time required for non-organic chemical residuals to be virtually eliminated from the orchard. During this period the orchard is regularly monitored to ensure growing practices continually conform to well defined rules.
WaimapuOrganics works with orchardists to streamline organic certification. By offering expert advice, and being on hand to answer any queries, WaimapuOrganics helps orchardists manage the conversion process and, most critically, reduce the risk of inadvertently applying a non-certified product that automatically resets the conversion period to three years.
