🧾 How This Rice Gets Certified

• APEDA and exporters have trained farmers to adopt residue-free methods, especially in heritage Basmati regions like Punjab and Haryana

• Lab testing for pesticides is done in FSSAI/NABL-accredited labs; residues must be below stringent thresholds especially for EU and US compliance.

• Some exporters hold India Organic (NPOP) or PGS-India certification, indicating organic practices — though for exports, APEDA-enforced standards are primary.
