APEDA NPOP (India organic registry)

Also known as: NPOP, APEDA NPOP, National Programme for Organic Production, India Organic

India's National Programme for Organic Production, run by APEDA — the government-accredited organic certification system, the Indian counterpart to Brazil's CNPO and the USDA organic layer. NPOP-certified operator rosters are published per certification body; the platform ingests the keyless public Google-Sheets ones (others are SharePoint/PDF-gated). Uniquely, the roster carries the major crops certified per operator.

APEDA NPOP is India’s National Programme for Organic Production — the government-accredited national organic certification system, India’s counterpart to Brazil’s CNPO and [[usda-organic|USDA Organic]].

How the platform uses it

India has no single government bulk file. NPOP operator rosters are published per certification body in mixed formats — most via JS/auth-walled SharePoint or PDF (a known gap, like the USDA OID portal), but several CBs publish public Google Sheets, which export to keyless CSV. The platform ingests those. Honest scope: this is the Google-Sheets-CB slice of NPOP, not the entire universe — partial, real, refreshable (re-scrape the operator-details page for new public sheets). Operator contact name / email / phone columns are never ingested; bare individual-farmer names are anonymized, per the no-solo-operator rule. The roster’s “Major Crops certified” field is mapped to plant nodes — the first per-operator crop signal in the directory (CDL gave land cover, CNG gave only category).
