Biodiversity records

The Organic System Plan (OSP) for your farm details planned production practices, including efforts to maintain or improve natural resources on-site.

All certified organic farms must keep records that will enable an inspector and certification reviewer to determine compliance with biodiversity guidelines. Records can include activity logs for mowing, pest monitoring, limits on livestock access to waterways, reseeding areas, grazing rotations, water test results, observation surveys, conservation maps, etc.
