From the meeting
The study recommends a state certification cost-share program for GAP, HACCP, GMP, and organic certification fees. It says these costs block small and scaling producers from retail, institutional, and wholesale markets, and ties the idea to technical assistance support. No program was launched in the document, so this remains a funding-design opportunity.
Vendors tied to certification, audit support, and compliance services should watch this space.
