BFDI - Standard Survey
Dear All,
we trust this finds you well. The Standards Committee and the Executive Board initiated a Standards review of the International Biodynamic Demeter Standard for 2023/24. Just in time for the 100th anniversary, we want to start the next century with a new version. The Demeter Standard is the oldest version of an organic farming Standard worldwide and is therefore somewhat getting on in years. It is both a solid basis for Demeter certification worldwide and subject to many ideas how to improve it to a more holistic document. A lot of ideas have been expressed in the previous years, too many to follow all of them. To get a clearer picture concerning expectations, needs and experiences from all stakeholders working with the Standard – certifiers, inspectors and licenses – we decided to start with this survey and to build the follow up on the result. Therefore, we very much appreciate that you take the time and be sure your opinion is very valuable for us to really design a Standard meeting the future of Biodynamics.
