What will you learn in this lesson?

In this module, you’ll learn what GACP (Good Agricultural and Collection Practice) really means, not as a vague standard, but as a structured system that defines how cultivation must be done when your goal is compliance and certification.

We’ll walk through the full scope of GACP, what it covers, from seed selection to post-harvest handling, how it compares to GMP, and where the two systems connect, why even at the farm level, regulators expect documentation, traceability, and quality control.

You’ll also be introduced to the ALCOA+ principles, the foundation of trustworthy data, and how they apply even to field logs and drying records.
If you’ve ever asked, “How do I show my process is clean and consistent?”, this module gives you the blueprint.

By the end of this lesson, you’ll understand how to align your work with GACP standards, and why doing so prepares you not only for local audits, but for entry into global markets.
Let’s begin.
