Rationale

When fresh or perishable items are sourced from land owners who produce items for sale that need to be transported from their origin location to where the buyer will consume the goods at a retail location, or as part of a combining of products to make something new that is consumed. The farm to table supply chain can involve many value added steps, and between each value producer, the certificate of authentication and communication of expected handling requirements must be conveyed to any service providers who will have custody and control of the products in transport, or in supply chain handling activities.
