Defining Risk Assessment Severity Level of Geographical Indication Product Salak Pondoh (Sallaca edulis cv Reinw) Sleman

Abstract

Assessing severity level of agricultural products, including those with geographical indication (GI), is important to properly maintain their quality level. This study aimed to identify risk types of GI products and define their severity levels. The identification of risk types and definition of severity levels of GI products had been done on Salak Pondoh Sleman, which has been certified since 2014. These two objectives had been achieved through two approaches: (1) the use of international/ national quality standards of horticultural products; and (2) in-depth interview with each business actor at all tier of the product’s supply chain. The results are discussed in the paper.
