Agriculture and raw materials

Agriculture and raw materials

Good quality products require good quality ingredients. Increasingly, crop raw materials are grown with a specific final product in mind: particular fruit and vegetable varieties are directed to the fresh produce market, whereas others are suitable for canning or freezing.

The way that they are produced is also important - segregation of organically and conventionally grown raw materials has been a major issue for several years, and this has highlighted the need for good traceability systems.

Campden BRI has been closely involved with these food chain issues for over half a century and we are the people to contact with questions on raw material production systems and post-harvest operations, including pesticide issues, and how the agricultural production and distribution chain should be managed and monitored.
