Good Agricultural and Collection Practices (GACP)

Good Agricultural and Collection Practices (GACP) are set of guidelines designed to ensure the quality and safety of herbs, plants, and raw materials used in medicines and supplements. They cover proper farming, harvesting, and handling techniques to prevent contamination, ensure purity, and maintain plant integrity. GACP promotes responsible use of resources, proper recordkeeping, and adherence to safety standards. By following these practices, producers can ensure that the plant materials are of consistent high quality, safe for use, and suitable for the manufacturing of medicinal products or other health-related applications.
