Scope

Main Technical Content: Trustworthy metrology generally requires that farmers' markets obtain the necessary business licenses and permits in accordance with the law.

Farmers' markets should use metrology instruments that comply with legal units and should not use instruments with deceptive or software-based cheating functions. If vulnerabilities or tampering are found in the software of the instruments in use, they should immediately suspend their use and take corrective and compensatory measures. Trustworthy metrology management requirements: 4.2.1 Trustworthy Metrology Commitment Mechanism Farmers' market management should establish a trustworthy metrology commitment system and actively disclose it to the public, requiring operators to equip and use metrology instruments that comply with national regulations and are appropriate for their business activities, and supervising and inspecting their compliance.
