TASCC Certification

Kiwa Agri Food is the certifier for the AIC Trade Assurance Scheme for Combinable Crops (TASCC). The TASCC scheme has been in place for over 10 years and aims to protect the food industry from contamination between the farm gate and delivery to the feed or food processor.

TASCC comprises 4 codes of practice:

Road Haulage –transport of bulk combinable crops between farms, stores and food and animal feed producers

Storage – of combinable crops in bins and in large flat stores

Merchanting – Buying and selling bulk combinable crops

Testing – testing of combinable crops to make sure they are safe

This scheme is aimed at people involved in the haulage, storage, testing and merchanting of combinable crops, animal feed or feed materials.

Haulage exclusion list

A key feature of the haulage code of practice is the Haulage Exclusion List which, as its name implies, is a list of materials totally excluded from TASCC vehicles. Lorries which have carried any material on the list are excluded from operating within the scheme at any time. New haulage applicants must be able to provide evidence of previous use of any second hand trailers they wish to operate in order that exclusion listed materials have not previously been carried.
