For the GLOBALG.A.P. IFA scheme version 4.0 a list of new products has been launched, the aquaculture products are more differentiated than in the last version.
 
  
Aquaculture products valid for version 4.0 need to be managed differently and are located separately from the Aquaculture products for version 3.1.
 
 
In the version 4 Aquaculture scope there are 3 subscopes:
 
 
* '''Crustaceans'''
 
* '''Finfish'''
 
* '''Molluscs'''

In the GLOBALG.A.P. Database each new Aquaculture product has now three different quantities to be filled in:
 
 
* '''broodstock'''
 
* '''seedlings'''
 
* '''farmed fish'''
 
 
 
For successful acceptance at least one quantity has to be entered. This enables obtaining certification for only broodstock, only seedlings, only farmed fish or for any combination of these three. The registration fee will be calculated for every quantity based on the current fee table.

The quantities that shall be entered above are the number of organisms in in-house production. Furthermore it is obligatory to enter, whether broodstock or seedlings are additionally purchased - otherwise the products cannot be accepted. This means, even if the producer does not buy additionally any, this information has to be put as an '''attribute'''.
 
 
This is a new feature in the GLOBALG.A.P. Database. If the icon [[File:Attributes.jpg]] is selected, they are shown:
 
 
 
[[File:Edit attributes.jpg]]
 
 
 
* '''Obligatory entries'''
 
 
It is obligatory to select ''Yes'' or ''No'' for ''Broodstock additionally purchased?'' and ''Seedlings additionally purchased?'', furthermore for ''Post harvest activity?''
 
 
'''Please, note: After having selected the first ''Yes'' or ''No'', wait till the value is validated and reloaded. Continue then with the second entry and so on.'''
 
 
Have you not entered any quantity for broodstock or seedlings in-house production, ''Yes''  has to be selected at least for seedling purchase indicating the product source.
 
 
Vice versa, have you chosen ''No'' for purchase, there must be a quantity at least for seedlings.
 
 
'''Attributes and quantity information are validated during product acceptance and certification.'''
 
 
 
'''Currently all these steps of product and attribute registration have to be completed online for aquaculture products in version 4.0''', the product upload sheet is not yet changed accordingly. 
 
 
 
* '''Voluntary entries'''
 
 
In case ''Yes'' is selected for ''broodstock'', it is optional to enter the specific ''GGN the producer is purchasing from'' (including the estimated no. of organisms).
 
 
Also the GGN of the ''feed supplier'' and the ''purchased quantity'' are voluntary.
 
 
== Chain of custody ==
 
 
The post harvest activity information covers the former on-farm-CoC (Chain of Custody) in chapter ''AB 12 Post Harvest – Mass Balance and Traceability (Performed by same legal entity as the farm)''. Producers will not receive a separate Chain of Custody certificate, neither if they sell the product for harvest and buy it again for packing.
 
 
'''In the aquaculture scope chain of custody is applicable for legal entities who aren´t producers and who only handle the product. This implies always the change of legal entity: producer is legal entity A, handling (e. g. packing) company ist legal entity B.'''
 
 
Chain of custody is implemented as a separate scheme standard in the database:  '''GLOBALG.A.P. Chain of Custody'''. The GLOBALG.A.P. Chain of Custody standard is applicable for the scopes crops and aquaculture.

Every product in the subscopes broodstock, seedlings and farmed fish appers also in the chain of custody tree.

GLOBALG.A.P. Chain of Custody v4.0 now has only one quantity entry per product:
 
''Estimated certified outcome annual quantity in t''
