The Red Tractor logo confirms that our independent assessors have checked food or drink meets our comprehensive standards, from farms to fork.
Our standards cover the following:

1.

The Red Tractor logo is a mark of quality food you can trust.

We insist on rigorous production standards from farms to pack eg. we don’t allow growth hormones or antibiotic residues in your meat. Just good quality food at its seasonal best!

2.

We know where all Red Tractor food and drink comes from.

Every stage of the journey is checked. Our systems ensure that all food can be traced right back to the original British farms.

3.

Red Tractor farmers care about their animals.

We visit every farm and only skilled people are allowed to look after livestock. Our standards mean animals have suitable space, and the right food and water to ensure they’re healthy. Our vets only prescribe medicines when animals are ill.

Red Tractor farmers care about our countryside.

Their land is their office and their home so they want to look after it! Fertilisers and pesticides are used only when necessary to keep crops healthy and always in a manner that reduces the risk of pollution and impact on wildlife.

5.

The Union Jack flag in the Red Tractor logo confirms your food has been born, grown, prepared and packed in the UK.

Every stage of the journey is checked. Our systems ensure that all food can be traced right back to the original British farms.
