Frequently Asked Questions
What is organic meat?
Organic meat means real food, grown without artificial fertilizers or pesticides. Organic meat also indicates that animals were not fed genetically modified food. Because there are no harmful chemicals in the meat, it is safe for human consumption.
Organic meats are good for the environment. The pollution levels in our environment are reduced when we eat organic foods. Organic farmers generally don't use toxic chemicals that kill birds and insects. We help to protect wildlife.
The best way to ensure that you eat healthy organic meats is to buy them locally whenever possible. Buying local helps keep more money circulating within the community rather than going out of state. Local businesses often pass savings on to customers who shop locally. Shopping locally keeps American jobs in America, rather than sending them abroad.
Are organic foods better for us?
According to the Environmental Working Group, organic vegetables and fruits had half the amount of pesticides as non-organic. Organic strawberries contained four times more pesticides that their conventional counterparts, and organic apples contained eight percent less.
Some studies also suggest that eating organic food helps reduce your exposure to toxic metals, such as mercury and lead. For example, one study showed that children who ate organic meat had 33 percent lower blood lead levels than those who didn't consume organic meats. A second study found that conventional fish should be avoided by pregnant women due to the high levels of mercury.
Organic food tends to be healthier than nonorganic. However, to reduce your risk of cancer and other diseases, experts recommend choosing fresh fruit and vegetables whenever possible.
What are my top priorities when buying organic products
USDA-certified organic label are desirable. This guarantee that the product has met specific standards set forth by USDA. On packages, boxes, cartons or cans, look out for the USDA Organic seal.
When shopping for meat, ensure it comes from cows fed 100% organic feed. Cattle are ruminants. This means they chew the cud. Ruminant cattle are divided into four stomach compartments, the rumen and reticulum as well as the omasum and abmasum. To be labeled '100% organic, all animal parts must be organically nourished.
When buying chicken, make sure it comes only from chickens fed 100% organic feed and never given antibiotics. Omnivore chickens eat both animals and plants. Omnivorous chickens have a digestive system that includes a crop (proventriculus), gizzard and small intestine.
When buying dairy products, ensure they come from cows fed 100% organically grown feed. Like ruminants, dairy cattle have four stomachs. Milk comes from the fourth stomach compartment--the udder.
To find out the percent of the feed the animals received when you purchase other types livestock, be sure to read the labels. For example, pork may be labelled '95% organic.' This means 95 percent of the pig's feed came from organic sources.
What are some of the benefits of organic agriculture?
Organic farming gives farmers the opportunity to grow food without the use of chemical pesticides. The farmers don't have to worry about pesticides causing harm to their crops and animals.
Organic farming also allows for more natural fertilizers. These fertilizers aid in the growth of healthy plants as well as reducing the amount chemical waste.
Organic farming is also beneficial for the environment. Farmers often use composting techniques to recycle nutrients back into the soil. This reduces the risk of pollution and helps conserve precious resources.
Organic farming also helps the environment by increasing crop yields. This is because there is much less water used during the growing season.
Organic production methods result in farmers receiving higher prices. Consumers who become more aware of the dangers of pesticides and chemical fertilizers demand healthier foods.
This raises the demand to produce organic food products. For these reasons, organic farming is becoming increasingly popular.
