Methodological explanations

Commercial quality is characteristics of an agricultural and food product, relating to its organoleptic, physico-chemical and microbiological qualities in terms of technology of production, size and mass as well as requirements resulting from the manner of production, packaging, presentation and labelling.

Agricultural and food products cover agricultural products, fruits of the forest, game, marine and freshwater organisms in the unprocessed, partially processed and processed forms derived from those unprocessed and partially processed products, including food products.
