Frequently Asked Questions

What should I be looking out for when shopping organic products

USDA-certified organic labels should be sought. This certification means that the product is certified organic by USDA. You will find the USDA Organic seal on all boxes, cartons and cans.

When purchasing meat, ensure it is 100% organic. Ruminants are cattle that chew their cud. Ruminant cattle have four stomach compartments: rumen, reticulum, omasum, and abomasum. If a cow is to be labeled organically, all parts must be organically fed.

Buy chicken from only organic chickens that have been fed 100% organic food and are not given antibiotics. Omnivore chickens eat both animals and plants. Omnivorous chickens have a digestive tract composed of a crop, proventriculus, gizzard, small intestine, large intestine, and anus.

Buy only dairy products from cows that have been fed organically grown feed. Like ruminants, dairy cattle have four stomachs. The fourth stomach compartment is the udder.

When purchasing other types of livestock, check the label to see what percentage of the diet the animals were fed. For example, pork may be marked "95% organic" to indicate that 95 percent of the pork's feed is organic.

What are the health benefits of organic farming

Organic farming provides farmers with a way of producing food without using chemicals. Farmers don't have worry about whether harmful pesticides are affecting their crops or animals.

Organic farming also offers more natural fertilizers. These fertilizers are good for plants that are healthy and reduce chemical waste.

Organic farming can also be environmentally friendly. Farmers often use composting techniques to recycle nutrients back into the soil. This reduces pollution and conserves valuable resources.

As well as helping the environment, organic farming increases crop yields. This is due to the fact that organic farming uses much less water during growth season.

Organic production methods mean farmers can get higher prices. Consumers who become more aware of the dangers of pesticides and chemical fertilizers demand healthier foods.

This drives up the demand for organic products. Organic farming is gaining popularity because of these reasons.

What is organic meat?

Organic meat is organic food that has been grown naturally without the use of pesticides, artificial fertilizers or hormones. Organic meat also indicates that animals were not fed genetically modified food. The meat is safe to consume because it contains no harmful chemicals.

Organic meats are good for the environment. Organic foods reduce pollution in rivers, lakes and landfills. Organic farmers are less likely to use toxic chemicals to kill birds or insects. This helps protect wildlife.

You can eat organic meats and produce whenever you can. Local purchasing helps keep money local, not out of the state. Local businesses often offer discounts to their customers by shopping locally. In addition, buying local keeps jobs right here in America instead of sending them overseas.

What are the most loved organic products?

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. They are safer, healthier for the environment, and easier to afford for consumers.

But they also tend to be higher priced. That is why we developed the Organic Food Index. We wanted to see which foods are most in demand today and how these trends are changing.

The results showed that organic food is increasing in popularity. Between 2011 and 2012 the number of Americans buying organic food increased nearly 50%.

The USDA reports that organic production increased 10% last year. The U.S. now produces 9% of its agricultural output from organic food.

Organic food is certainly on the rise but consumers are still not able to afford it. 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 due to consumer demand for healthier food, which explains why organic foods sales are rising across all age groups.

However, younger generations are leading the charge when choosing organic food. Millennials are twice likely to choose organic food than the baby boomers. And young adults under 35 years old account for 25% of all organic food purchases.

What are the health benefits of organic foods?

Some organic foods may not prove to be good for you. There are certain health benefits to those who consume organic foods regularly.

Organic food is grown without the use of pesticides herbicides fungicides hormones antibiotics or genetic engineering. This means that organic produce is grown without harmful chemicals that could harm human health.

The use of additives in the processing process is also less common. Organic products are likely to be healthier than nonorganic.

Studies have shown organic foods have more nutrients and antioxidants that conventionally grown fruits, vegetables.

Although organic farming methods tend to cost more than conventional farming methods, they often yield better results. Organic farming increases soil fertility and biodiversity.

This helps protect against erosion and conserve water resources. Organic farms require less fuel and energy because they don't contain toxic chemicals.

People worry that organic foods will be more expensive than those made from conventional food. However, prices can vary depending upon where you live. For example, organic apples can be more costly than conventional apples.

But, if we look at the total cost of a combination of both types and fruits, we'll see organic is much cheaper.

So should you go organic?

It all depends on your personality. It doesn't matter if organic food isn't for you.

You can purchase organic food if it is delicious. And since most commercial growers use chemical fertilizers, pesticides, and genetically modified organisms (GMOs), organic foods are safer for consumers.

Organic agriculture protects our environment by conserving natural resources and promoting biodiversity.

Why should I go organic?

Conventional agriculture has been linked to several health problems, including asthma, allergies, obesity, diabetes, cancer, birth defects, hormone imbalances, and other diseases. You must make healthy choices when buying food.

Here are some tips from the Environmental Working Group (EWG).

When possible, buy organic fruits and veggies

USDA organic labels for meat, poultry eggs, milk and cheese as well butter and honey are recommended.

Avoid processed foods marked "natural" or with "no additives."

Check ingredient lists carefully. If an ingredient is not listed, it can be added during processing.

Frozen and canned meats should be preferred to fresh. Canned and frozen foods can often have lower nutritional content like high fructose syrup.

How To

5 Reasons You Should Buy Organic Products

Organic food is grown without synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. They contain no genetically modified or irradiated food ingredients. Their production processes do not include sewage or industrial solvents. During the growth process, food is kept clean from any contamination. It is free of artificial preservatives and additives. There is no use hormones or anti-biotics. They are also grown in conditions that ensure they retain their nutritional value for longer periods of time.

1. Health benefits. Nonorganic produce is more chemically-laden than organic. This means that it is less likely to cause allergies. It also means that you consume less toxic chemicals and carcinogens.
2. Eco-friendliness. Organic produce is low in water consumption. Organic farms are located far from cities where there is a lot of pollution, because they require so much energy to grow. That helps reduce air pollution.
3. Sustainability. Organic farming relies more on soil fertility than chemical fertilizers. This results is healthier soils with higher organic matter. The rotation of crops and the letting of land fallow can improve soil health. When farm animals eat only grasses and grains raised without any added hormones or antibiotics, they develop strong immune systems.
4. Taste. Traditional fruits and vegetables are often bland due to the fact that they are picked at peak ripeness and shipped long distances for grocery stores. Organic produce is sweeter and richer because it was harvested at the peak of its ripeness.
5. Nutrition. GMOs and BPA can be found in many processed foods. Stick to whole foods, including meat, eggs fish, nuts seeds, beans and fruit.
