JAS (Japanese Agricultural Standards)

Japanese Agricultural Standards (JAS) are regulations that ensure the quality and safety of agricultural products in Japan. They cover various aspects, including organic farming, food labeling, and product grading. By adhering to these standards, producers guarantee that their products meet specific criteria for quality and safety, which helps protect consumers and maintain trust in the food system. JAS also facilitates international trade by allowing foreign products to meet Japanese requirements, ensuring consistency and safety in the marketplace. These standards play a crucial role in promoting sustainable practices and improving the overall quality of food in Japan.
