Frequently asked questions
What is the GLOBALG.A.P. SPRING add-on?
SPRING (Sustainable Programme for Irrigation and Groundwater Use) is a voluntary GLOBALG.A.P. add-on focused on responsible water management at farm level. It evaluates how a producer sources, uses and protects water, including legal compliance, water-use efficiency, protection of water sources and impact on the local watershed. The SPRING add-on templates give South African producers a structured documentation base to demonstrate these practices during a GLOBALG.A.P. IFA Version 6 audit.
What's included in the GLOBALG.A.P. SPRING add-on templates toolkit?
The toolkit includes editable policies, procedures, forms, checklists and water-related risk assessments aligned to the SPRING add-on, such as water-source mapping, irrigation and groundwater monitoring records, legal water-use compliance documents and water-management planning tools. Everything is customisable in Word and Excel so you can adapt it to your farm's catchment, crops and irrigation system before your GLOBALG.A.P. IFA Version 6 assessment.
Do I need GLOBALG.A.P. IFA Version 6 certification before adding SPRING?
Yes. SPRING is an add-on, not a stand-alone standard, so it is assessed in conjunction with a valid GLOBALG.A.P. IFA Version 6 certification for crops. The SPRING add-on templates are designed to layer onto an existing or in-progress IFA Version 6 system, supplying the extra water-stewardship documentation. If you still need the base system, ASC also offers GLOBALG.A.P. IFA Version 6 templates without add-ons.
Are the SPRING add-on templates editable?
Yes. Every document is supplied in editable Word or Excel format so you can insert your farm details, water sources, irrigation methods, monitoring frequencies and responsible persons. This lets South African producers tailor the SPRING add-on templates to their actual operation rather than starting documentation from scratch, saving significant implementation time ahead of a GLOBALG.A.P. audit.
Who needs the GLOBALG.A.P. SPRING add-on in South Africa?
SPRING is typically required or requested by retailers and buyers who want assurance of sustainable water use, particularly for fresh produce exported to water-conscious European markets. South African farms in water-stressed regions, or those supplying customers who specify the add-on, benefit most. The SPRING add-on templates suit growers, packhouses and primary producers needing to evidence responsible irrigation and groundwater management.
How do I get the GLOBALG.A.P. SPRING add-on templates from ASC?
You can request the GLOBALG.A.P. SPRING add-on templates directly from ASC Food Safety Consultants and receive them by digital download. ASC serves producers across South Africa, with offices in Gqeberha, Johannesburg and Cape Town, and can pair the toolkit with implementation guidance or GLOBALG.A.P. IFA Version 6 training to support your certification journey. Contact ASC or request a quote to proceed.
