Participatory Guarantee System (PGS) is a quality assurance initiative that is locally relevant, emphasize the participation of stakeholders, including producers and consumers and operate outside the frame work of third party certification.
As per IFOAM (2008) definition "Participatory Guarantee Systems are locally focused quality assurance systems. They certify producers based on active participation of stakeholders and are built on a foundation of trust, social networks and knowledge exchange”.
PGS is a process in which people in similar situations (in this case small holder producers) assess, inspect and verify the production practices of each other and take decision on organic certification (PGS-Green and PGS Organic).
In tune with the PGS Guidelines, PGS India system is also based on
Participatory Approach,
A Shared Vision,
Transparency and Trust.
In addition it gives PGS movement a National recognition and institutional structure without affecting the spirit of PGS.
Local Groups
Regional Councils
Zonal Councils
Nations Centre of Organic Farming(NCOF)
National Advisory Committee (NAC)
Regional councils and facilitating agencies will facilitate the local groups in capacity building, training, certification, knowledge/ technology dissemination and data uploading on the PGS website. But at every stage it will be ensured that these agencies including apex body do not interfere in the working and decision making of the group. Even if surveillance is done and reports are made, the same will also be put on website in public domain. What action is to be taken on adverse reports will be left to the group and Regional Council.
