Guarantees	≥95% organic ingredients per LPO. Annual on-site inspection by SENASICA-accredited certifier.	≥95% organic ingredients. No synthetic pesticides, no synthetic fertilizers, no GMOs. Annual inspection by a MAFF-registered certifier.	Reduced (not eliminated) synthetic pesticide use, with bans on the most hazardous classes. Forest conservation requirements (no deforestation after the cut-off date). Worker welfare and community development requirements. Annual third-party audit.	Compliance with the East Africa Organic Products Standard (EAOPS). Peer-review inspection via Participatory Guarantee Systems (PGS). Regional cross-recognition across the five East African Community member states.
Does NOT	USDA equivalence is granted product-by-product, not blanket.	Mutual recognition with the US, EU, and Canada applies to specific product categories — check each agreement before importing.	Allows synthetic pesticides — does NOT meet any organic standard. Often confused with organic but it's a different programme.	PGS-based — the inspection model is community peer-review rather than third-party. Strong for domestic markets, less recognised by the EU/USA than third-party schemes.
