After careful analysis of the existing organic certification systems in the country, the Collective decided to go in for PGS (Participatory Guarantee System), which is small-holder farmer friendly, less expensive, with comparatively less documentation and more reliable.

Peer group inspection, the key activity in the PGS certification, is carried out in all the villages every year. Proper documentation procedures, in line with PGS Organic India Council guidelines (http://www.pgsorganic.in/), have been undertaken by all participating farming families and sanghas. All the documents utilised in the process are in local language (Telugu), which enables the farmer members to participate.

Training programmes have been organized for the farmers on certification and methodology under PGS system. All the farmer members have pledged to grow crops using organic methods and follow all the systems required for PGS certification.
