Leonardo Academy is facilitating the development of a National Standard for Sustainable Agriculture, under the rules of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). The ANSI standard development requirements provide for an open, balanced, and transparent standards-setting process that is internationally recognized. Leonardo Academy, an ANSI-accredited standards developer (ASD), is responsible for ensuring that the ANSI standard requirements are fully enforced and that all interested stakeholders—including producers, food companies, retailers, trade associations, government representatives, environmental organizations, labor organizations, consumer groups, certifiers and academics—have a place at the table.

In the fall of 2008, the Standards Committee agreed to treat the draft standard as a reference document, and a PINS was filed for this project on November 28, 2008.
