Final Tonnage for Crop Year 2009
Georgia Federal-State Inspection Service began serving the Agriculture Industry in 1927. We are presently located at 2323 N. Slappey Blvd., Albany, Georgia.
GA FSIS provides an honest, impartial, efficient
and accurate service to the members of the Agricultural
Industry. We inspect
over 35 commodities, including peanuts, misc. fruits and vegetables,
and pecans. The use of
the Inspection service ensures the shipment of high quality produce
and enhances Georgia’s reputation as a supplier of superior
agricultural products.
GA FSIS performs voluntary and/or compulsory
inspections of products grown and/or marketed in the state of
Georgia, as well as traded in the interstate commerce arena. We also inspect products
that are imported into the U.S. such as onions, peanuts, and
melons. These
inspections determine grade, size, quality, and net weight and are
certified on Federal or Federal-State certificates.
GA FSIS offers GAP&GHP Audit Verification Program which is a voluntary, fee for service program.
Audits are only performed by USDA trained and licensed Federal or State department of agriculture employees.
USDA AMS Fresh Products Branch works in cooperation with States to ensure program integrity, uniformity,
and consistency nationwide. USDA trained and licensed auditors provide an unbiased review of growers,
handlers, or receiver’s practices to minimize food safety hazards. This program verifies that the participating
companies are conforming to generally accepted agricultural best practices. This program is not a
regulatory or mandatory audit required by any State or Federal regulation.
Passing audit results are posted on USDA’s website and are accessible by you and your customers.
In addition, organizations with passing results are acknowledged with an official USDA certificate
verifying that the organization passed the applicable elements of the audit. A certificate is issued
from USDA to verify your achievement of a passing audit and is suitable for framing.
GA FSIS, in addition to providing the inspections service, sells equipment
necessary for peanut inspection. We also have personnel in
our offices that maintain equipment, guaranteeing that it is within
the U.S.D.A. regulations. To receive a quote on equipment or equipment maintenance,
email Doyle Ingram(maint@gafsis.com).
