Carrot trace points
The records that make a carrot trace work:
- Paddock and harvest date per bin
- Wash, polish and optical-sort batch
- Grade-outs and waste per lot
- Bag, carton and baton lots
- Customer, PO and dispatch
Regulation and industry context
Carrot is not on the FDA Food Traceability List, but retailers, GFSI schemes and export markets still require one-step-back, one-step-forward traceability.
Carrot washing and grading lines reject a large share of intake as seconds and waste. Recording rejects per lot connects yield loss to paddock and season. Fresh-cut carrot sticks and shredded carrot are fresh-cut products on the Food Traceability List.
