NAWG Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) and Glyphosate brochure

Good agricultural practices (GAP) are specific methods which, when applied to agriculture, create food for consumers or further processing that is safe and wholesome. The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Agricultural Marketing Service currently operates an audit/certification program to verify that farms use good agricultural practice and/or good handling practice. This is a voluntary program typically utilized by growers and packers to satisfy contractual requirements with retail and food service buyers.

In effort to remind our growers about the following on-label use of glyphosate and all pesticides, the National Wheat Foundation has created this brochure.
