As outlined in the requirements of the 2020 Sustainable Agriculture Standard, certificate holders must conduct a risk assessment.

The risk assessment tool is available for group and individually certified farm management as well as supply chain actors who have social topics in their scope. The tool helps to identify risks that could prevent the certificate holder from complying with the applicable requirements and reaching the expected sustainability outcomes.

This download contains the Basic and In-Depth Risk Assessments of Annex S03:

  • SA-S-SD-4a Annex S03: Basic Risk Assessment Tool
  • SA-S-SD-4b Annex S03: Part 1.3.5. Climate Change In-Depth Risk Assessment
  • SA-S-SD-4c Annex S03: Part 1.6.3. Gender In-Depth Risk Assessment
  • SA-S-SD-4d Annex S03: Part 5.1.5 Assess-and-Address In-Depth Risk Assessment
