I am not sure if this question is for the ICMSA or the IFA, but I want to ask about the number of inspections that a farmer can have over a year, whether he is in ACRES or other schemes or is a certified food producer. Are the organisations aware of any jurisdiction where this is centralised and a farmer is just inspected once and everything is done once a year? Is that possible or pragmatic? Does that happen anywhere else in the world?
