Paragraph
Paragraph text
Standards must be clear and specific so that firms cannot manipulate the application of vague standards. On the other hand, they should not be too complex, which could also allow firms to manipulate standards. Firms should demonstrate the standards visually to farmers. In addition, the firm's representatives should explain well in advance how crops are graded.
