Farm Assurance

ABP were one of the first processors in Ireland to recognize the importance of a Beef Quality Assurance Scheme and in 1995 ABP were the first processor to launch their own scheme.

ABP are now part of the Bord Bia BLQAS which is EN 45011 accredited. The farm audits are carried out independently and certification is granted by Bord Bia.

This BLQAS Farm Standard is very comprehensive and covers areas such as:

• Identification and Traceability
• Animal Medicines
• Animal Nutrition
• Animal Welfare and Stockmanship
• Animal Housing and Transport
• Environmental Protection
