​​About PHA:
Produce Handling Assurance (PHA) provides food safety and traceability certification of postharvest activities such as the cooling, packing, handling, and storage of crops for human consumption. It supports compliance with the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) and can be combined with Integrated Farm Assurance (IFA) or the Harmonized Produce Safety Standard (HPSS) to provide a complete certification option for producers with on-farm packing or other postharvest activities.
