According to the Hygiene Package Regulations, European Member States encourage the development and dissemination of national guides to good practice for hygiene and for the application of HACCP principles. These guides are developed by food business sectors. Within the oilseed crops food chain, such guides are developed at different stages: primary production of oilseed crops, collection and storage of seeds, oilseeds crushing and refining industry. This article presents these three guides developed in France by the federations of concerned operators. We describe how these guides are constructed, their scope, their progress in the validation process by the authorities, the health hazards identified, best practices by sector and HACCP study.
