1. INTRODUCTION1.1 BONSUCROBonsucro is a global multi-stakeholder non-profit initiative dedicated to reducing theenvironmental and social impacts of sugarcane production. The mission of Bonsucro is toensure that current and new sugarcane production and all sugarcane derived products areproduced sustainably. Bonsucro aims to achieve this mission through designing andorganization the process of multi-stakeholder definition for sustainable sugarcaneproduction and all sugarcane derived products (i.e. ‗Standard Setting‘) and ensuring theintegrity of its implementation (i.e. ‗Certification‘).1.2 BONSUCRO CERTIFICATION SYSTEMThe Bonsucro Certification System consists of 3 main elements:1. Standards: Bonsucro has developed 2 standards:The “Bonsucro Production Standard” contains principles and criteria forachieving sustainable production from sugarcane and all sugarcane derivedproducts in respect of economic, social and environmental dimensions. Inaddition, the Production Standard contains a set of technical and administrativerequirements for enabling the tracking of claims on this sustainable productionof Bonsucro sugarcane and all sugarcane derived products in the cane supplyarea and in the milling operations including the transport of cane to the mill 1 .The “Bonsucro Mass Balance Chain of Custody Standard” contains a set oftechnical and administrative requirements for enabling the tracking of claims onthe sustainable production of Bonsucro sugarcane and all sugarcane derivedproducts along the entire supply chain after the mill and its cane supply;through production (e.g. conversion, processing, manufacturing,transformation), warehousing, transportation and trade to use of sugarcane andall sugarcane derived products.NOTE: Those Chain of Custody requirements that are applicable to the mill andits cane supply area are already included within the Production Standard andare identical to those of the Mass Balance Chain of Custody Standard.2. Audit Guidance: Bonsucro has developed guidance and clarification documents formembers and auditors on how to become compliant with the Bonsucro ProductionStandard and/or Chain of Custody Standard. This includes: 1.) description of how tointerpret the principles and criteria from the Bonsucro standards, 2.) auditinstructions to verify compliance through indicators and verifiers, 3.) informationrelated to exceptional situations, 4.) objective criteria for critical limits, and 5.)Tools and calculations for audit1 These requirements are identical to the requirements of the Bonsucro Mass Balance Chain of Custody Standard.Bonsucro Mass Balance ChoC Standard – Version 3.0 March 2011Including Bonsucro EU Mass Balance ChoC Standard© Bonsucro 2011/Bonsucro EU 2011Page | 4
