On the morning of June 23, Wujin Yanghu Peach passed the PEFC certification, obtaining a “green pass” for entering the international market.

The Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC) is an international, non-profit, non-governmental organization which promotes sustainable forest management through independent third party certification. It is considered the certification system of choice for small forest owners. Its 35 worldwide independent national forest certification systems represent more than 300 million ha of certified forests, making it the largest forest certification system in the world, covering about two-thirds of the globally certified forest area. PEFC only recognize forests certified to standards that have been reviewed and endorsed by PEFC. National forest certification systems wanting to obtain PEFC endorsement are subject to an independent assessment to ensure that it meets the many PEFC requirements for the standards development process, public review and forest management requirements. After more than 10 years of exploration and practice, China’s national forest certification system obtained PEFC endorsement in 2014.

This time, Yanghu Peach became the first peach in China that passed the PEFC certification, providing an opportunity for the standardization and high-end, differentiated development of the peach industry.
