The Assured Produce Scheme (APS) has announced the introduction of a rolling subscription, doing away with the current fixed date of October 1, in order to coincide with member growersâ cropping cycle. Adrian Wallbridge, technical manager of APS, said: "While the scheme year remains unchanged, running from October 1 to September 30, APS members will be sent their renewal papers twelve months after their scheme year 2 subscription date. The move from a fixed subscription date is also targeted at new growers who are being encouraged to join the scheme at any time of the year.
