In addition, there is the European model of quality management. The European model is based on the
methodology proposed by the European Foundation for Quality Management and assumes a multi-criteria
approach (Understanding Quality Management System, 2011). The essence of this approach is that in addition to
the traditional involvement of staff in the processes of manufacture of high quality products and the focus on the
full and anticipatory satisfaction of customers' needs, it also takes into account the impact of products
manufacture on the society. In fact, the European model of quality management (both business processes and
goods manufacture organization) is based not only on the social orientation, but also on the full social
responsibility.
We should also mention the American model, which is the concentration of the Japanese and European national
models, while the American model, on the one hand, may seem more simplified (liberal) compared to the
Japanese model, but, on the other hand, more rigid compared to the European model of quality management.
As part of the national models, various concepts of manufacture organization (including the organization of
agricultural production), aimed at improving the quality of products may be used. Among these models of
quality management in particular, we should highlight the following most famous developments (Total Quality
Management And Six Sigma, 2012; Zineldin, 2001):
