This Code of Practice specifies general hygienic practices for the primary production and packing of fresh fruits and vegetables (cultivated for human consumption) in order to produce a safe and wholesome product, particularly for those intended to be consumed raw. Specifically, this Code is applicable to fresh fruits and vegetables grown in the field (with or without cover) or in protected facilities (hydroponic systems, greenhouses). It concentrates no microbial hazards and addresses physical and chemical hazards only in so far as these relate to Good Agricultural Practices (GAPs) and Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs). This Code does not provide recommendations for handling practices to maintain the safety of fresh fruits and vegetables at wholesale, retail, food services or in the home. It excludes food products for which there is a specific Codex Alimentarius Code of Hygienic Practice. This Code shall be read in conjunction with the latest version of GYS 13, “Specification for food hygiene”.

This document specifies a method for the magnetic particle testing of ferro-magnetic steel and iron castings. It also gives acceptance criteria through severity levels defined by the nature, the area and the dimensions of the discontinuities present. This document is applicable to all ferro-magnetic castings, independent of the moulding method. A steel and iron casting is considered to be ferro-magnetic if the magnetic induction is greater than 1 T

(Tesla) for a magnetic field strength of 2,4 kA/m. This document only applies to those areas of the castings specified for testing, as well as the percentage

of castings to be tested

This document specifies a method for the liquid penetrant testing of steel and iron castings.
