Frequently Asked Questions
What is inorganic food?
Organic food is made without pesticides or artificial fertilizers. These chemicals can cause health problems in organic foods.
Organic food is free from harmful substances like pesticides and herbicides. These chemicals can harm humans and animals.
Inorganic food includes meat, fish, eggs, milk, cheese, butter, yogurt, honey, grains, vegetables, fruits, spices, and herbs.
The way that an agricultural product is grown organically is what the term means. Organic farming is based on natural methods, soil amendments, and crop growth. Conventional farming uses pesticides, fertilizers, and chemicals.
Organic foods must comply with strict guidelines set forth by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The National Organic Program Standards require that all organic foods are free of prohibited substances such as antibiotics and growth hormones, genetically modified organisms or industrial solvents. Organic food must be grown without the use of toxic chemicals or petroleum-based fertilizers.
Which organic products are most in demand?
The fastest-growing industry is organic food. Even though we have come a long ways from our roots there is still plenty of room for growth.
Organic products are the future. Organic products are safer and better for the environment. They also make it more affordable for consumers.
They are also generally more expensive. We created the Organic Food Index. We wanted to know which foods are popular today and whether trends are changing.
The results of the study show that organic food has become more popular. Between 2011-2012, nearly half of Americans shopped for organic foods.
The USDA reports that organic production increased 10% last year. Organic food now accounts for 9% of U.S. agricultural output.
While organic food is certainly gaining ground, it seems that it is still an expensive choice for consumers. According to the Organic Trade Association, (OTA), organic food retail prices are nearly twice as expensive than conventional options.
That said, organic food is growing faster than any other segment of the food sector. You'll notice that organic food consumption has increased steadily since 2009.
According to OTA however, the volume in supermarkets of organic products grew by 14% from 2010 to 2011.
This is because of consumer demand for healthier products, which explains the rise in organic food sales across all age categories.
However, the younger generation is leading the charge in choosing organic food. Millennials are twice likely to choose organic food than the baby boomers. 25 percent of organic food purchases are made by young adults younger than 35.
Is organic meat healthier?
If you've been paying attention for any time, you probably already know the answer to this question. This is the crux of it: organic food has been growing in popularity while conventional food has fallen out of favor.
The reason why organic foods continue to rise in popularity is that they are healthier for us. Organic foods are safer for our bodies and help to reduce pollution.
However, this coin has two sides. Organic produce is more difficult to grow and takes more resources. This means organic food will cost more than its non-organic counterpart.
Organic meats tend to be more expensive than those raised conventionally. There are however ways to lower these costs without sacrificing the quality of organic meats.
Local purchases can help you save money. Buy locally grown vegetables and fruits to help keep prices low. Farmers receive incentives to grow healthier crops.
You can also look for deals to reduce costs. When you purchase organics, there are often discounts.
Consuming less meat is another way to save cash. Feeding livestock can be very expensive.
There are many reasons why organic food is better for our bodies and the planet, but we should be careful not to overlook the cost.
Statistics
- Popular clothing brands, like Patagonia, are labelled as organic by using 100 percent organic cotton for many of their styles. (en.wikipedia.org)
- According to a study performed by consumerreports.org, organic products, compared to non-organic products, ranged anywhere from 13 percent cheaper to 303 percent more expensive. (en.wikipedia.org)
- As for organic meat, regulations require that animals be raised in living conditions that accommodate their natural behaviours (like the ability to graze on pasture), fed 100% organic feed and forage, and not administered antibiotics or hormones. (usda.gov)
- When packaged products indicate they are “made with organic [specific ingredient or food group],” they contain at least 70% organically produced ingredients. (usda.gov)

How To
What happens when you switch from conventional products to organic?
Organic products are grown without pesticides, synthetic fertilizers, hormones, antibiotics, or genetic manipulation. They are derived from clean water and animals that have been free to roam. Organic means that they are free from chemicals and additives. This product was naturally produced and contains no harmful chemicals.
The term "natural" refers to how food is grown. It's used to describe foods that have not been altered into their final form (e.g. fruits). Natural foods are often more fresh than others, because they haven’t been processed with heat, radiation or chemical preservations. But, not everyone believes that natural foods are healthy. Experts aren't sure if there is much to be different between organic and traditional foods. Both types are tested for safety as well as quality. But organic produce has fewer pollutants and pesticide residues than conventionally grown produce.
Most grocery stores now sell organic products. For organic meats, poultry, eggs and seafood, you should check with your local supermarket. Some companies only sell organic products. Others have separate sections. USDA Certified Organic is a non-GMO Project Verified company.
These foods should be avoided by women who are pregnant or breast-feeding. Unborn babies and infants can be exposed to pesticides.
