French term or phrase: agréée faisant foi
Le prix d'achat en C&F, exprime en US Dollars par Tonne Metrique, est base sur la moyenne arithmetique mensuelle des cotations moyennes (Hautes et Basses) telles que publiees par le Platt's EUROPEAN MARKETSCAN sous sa rubrique "CIF MED GENOVA/LAVERA" durant le mois calendaire de programmation (fourchette agreee faisant foi).


Thanks.

Explanation:
Faisant foi means that the "fourchette agréée" is what will be officially used in case there is a dispute.

"Le cachet de la poste faisant foi" is the most commonly used expression with this term. It means that if there is a dispute concerning the date a letter arrives or is sent, the final reference concerning this matter will be the date printed on the stamp by the postal service.
