COG Pro is an easy-to-use system that
satisfies the USDA standard for Certified Organically Grown record keeping. All
the producer’s records are in one online notebook, available from anywhere in
the world. Powered by a secure online database, COG Pro makes generating
reports for certification a snap. From headache to problem solved.
Companion logbooks are planned for
tracking data related to Good Agricultural Practices (G.A.P.) and other food
safety auditing. Also in development are
mobile apps to allow data entry from smart phones directly in the field or
barn. Expected release date for these
products is first or second quarter of 2012.
Use of the COG Pro logbook is based on a
yearly fee. Access to the system is
available for an introductory price of $60 per year for each module; merely $5 per
month. Subscriptions have a 30 day
satisfaction guarantee with a full refund if the user chooses to leave the
system within the first month. Growers
and ranchers can try the logbook out for free by logging in as a guest.
Certified Organic Business Solutions, LLC is led by Richard
Wilen, Ph.D. and a design team composed of
graphic designer Kathy Kifer and programmer Ben Brinkley. In addition to 40 years experience in
database design and management, Dr. Wilen has been involved in organic
agriculture for 35 years. The COG-Pro
notebook evolved out of his experience with operating a certified organic farm
for over 20 years and frustration with the limited tools available for farmers
to meet the ever burgeoning requirements for record keeping. The result is an effective, easy to use
system developed by a farmer for other farmers.
Organic
certification - simplified.
