LEAF Marque Standard Setting
LEAF Marque is an environmental assurance scheme, showing that food has been grown sustainably and with care for the environment. Here we take a look at the process of setting the LEAF Marque Standard.

Your Feedback
Stakeholder engagement is a core part of LEAF Marque and we welcome feedback from all stakeholders on all areas including the LEAF Marque Standard, the Standard Setting Procedure and our Public Consultation Approach. If you have questions, feedback or suggestions about the LEAF Marque Standard, Standard Setting Procedure or Public Consultation Approach, please email [email protected].
Version 17.0
Every few years we review the LEAF Marque Standard to ensure it remains relevant. As industry practices and scientific understanding evolve over time, so our Standard needs to evolve too. Our Standard review is public and consistent with best practice codes and guidelines provided by ISEAL. It engages our members and stakeholders including academics, fellow NGO's, government, industry and members of the public throughout the process.
We are currently in the process of developing the next version of the LEAF Marque Standard (v17.0), and our public consultation is open from 12th March 2024 until the 10th May 2024. LEAF Marque welcomes comments on the LEAF Marque Standard at any time and uses this to inform the development of the LEAF Marque Standard. Please feel free to contact us by emailing [email protected].
