T/GVEAIA 031.5-2026 Rare Earth Intervention in Agricultural Product Production Regulation Part 5: Test Methods
Basic Information
Scope
This document specifies the inspection classification, batching and sampling, rare earth residue detection, flavor quality detection, physical and nutritional testing, safety indicators, and result determination and re-inspection requirements for agricultural products regulated by rare earth intervention in their production. This document applies to the quality inspection of rare earth-regulated agricultural products, including vegetables, fruits, grains, tea, edible fungi, and medicinal plants, as stipulated in the T/GVEAIA 038 series standards. This document provides testing method support for the limit indicators specified in T/GVEAIA 031.2 (Technical Requirements) and provides a basis for the graded inspection of the T/GVEAIA 038 series standards. 4. Inspection Classification 4.1 Type Inspection 4.1.1 Trigger Conditions The following circumstances require type inspection: - First production of a new product or transfer of production to a new factory for an existing product; - Significant changes in raw materials, processes, or equipment that may affect product quality; - Resumption of production after a hiatus of more than 6 months; - Requirement for type inspection by national quality supervision authorities; - At least once annually during normal production. 4.1.2 Inspection Items Includes all items specified in Chapters 6-9: - Rare earth residue (total rare earth + individual elements); - Flavor quality (five flavor intensities + characteristic substances); - Physical and nutritional properties (soluble solids, sugars, acids, vitamin C, etc.); - Safety indicators (heavy metals, pesticide residues, microorganisms). 4.2 Factory Inspection 4.2.1 Inspection Items Every batch of products must undergo the following inspections before leaving the factory: - Sensory inspection (appearance, flavor, defects); - Net content (compliance with JJF 1070); - Target flavor characteristic substances (e.g., soluble solids for sweet tomatoes); - Rapid screening of rare eart
