myBMP Lead Certification Auditor

Date Issued:2015-06-30

Abstract

This project supported the training and development of auditors for myBMP, the refinement of the myBMP auditing framework, and rationalisation and clarification of practices to be audited. myBMP audits are undertaken on farm and farms are audited every five years to remain compliant. Seventy two farms are myBMP accredited an increase from 5 at project inception with 20 farms participating in the Better Cotton Initiative. Currently demand for myBMP accredited bales and BCI cotton is increasing and is providing momentum to the myBMP accreditation program. This is being further supported by Monsanto through a system to support the cost of an audit. The number of myBMP bales produced and shipped has increased significantly over the last few years rising from 15,000 bales in 2013 to 65,000 bales in 2015.
